In stainless steel pipe selection and procurement, "seamless" is often regarded as a guarantee of quality. However, even though both are seamless steel pipes, cold-drawn and hot-rolled processes ultimately have fundamentally different effects on mechanical properties, surface quality, processing accuracy, and service life. "Seamless" is just the beginning; cold drawing and hot rolling processes each have their own strengths and weaknesses. Engineering selection should be based on actual working conditions, comprehensively considering strength, toughness, post-processing, and cost. Matel can provide customized production advice to help customers find the optimal balance between performance, cost, and delivery time.
