Steel Industry Glossary › ERW PipeWhat are the specifications and applications of ERW pipes in industrial manufacturing? ERW pipes, or Electric Resistance Welded pipes, are manufactured to ASTM A53 and ASME B36.10 standards. They are typically used in structural applications, oil and gas pipelines, and water transport due to their strength and 0% claim rate on 2024-2025 nuclear-spec shipments. ERW pipes range in diameter from ½ inch to 24 inches, making them versatile for various industrial applications.
ERW Pipe Electric Resistance Welded pipe — manufactured by rolling steel coil and welding the seam using electric resistance. Used for structural and low-pressure applications.
