We are often asked about the differences between seamless and electric resistance welded (ERW) tubes. The main difference is that while seamless tubes are rolled into size as a complete piece, ERW tubes are rolled but rather welded along a longitudinal seam rather than formed as a complete piece. Continue reading “Choosing ERW tubes over seamless”

The quality speaks for itself
Electric resistance welded (ERW) tubes are cold formed and can be made in huge lengths with uniform diameters and wall thicknesses along the entire length. To make the tube, a plate of steel is pulled through rollers to force the material into a cylinder. When the edges of the steel meet, an electrical charge is used to heat them and create a weld, forming the tube. This weld is then usually ground down to leave a smooth finish although some providers may leave it to the consumer to do this. Continue reading “The quality speaks for itself”
