What are the materials of seamless steel pipes?

As an indispensable and important steel material for the construction of the national economy, seamless steel pipes are widely used in fields such as construction, mechanical processing, and pipeline engineering (transporting fluids and solids such as water, oil, gas, coal, and boiler steam). Due to different usage environments and uses, it is still necessary to choose appropriate materials and standards when selecting to avoid waste and unsafe factors.

What does seamless steel pipe material mean? The material is what we often call the grade, such as 20#, 45#, which represents its chemical composition and mechanical properties such as tensile strength, yield strength, and expansion rate. The following is the commonly used seamless steel pipe materials, production standards and uses summarized by the author.
