Teräsputken

Teräsputken is a Finnish term that translates to "steel pipe" in English. It refers to a hollow cylindrical product made from steel, used for a wide variety of applications across numerous industries. Steel pipes are known for their strength, durability, and resistance to pressure and corrosion, making them suitable for transporting fluids and gases, as well as for structural purposes.

The manufacturing process for teräsputken typically involves either seamless or welded methods. Seamless pipes are formed by extruding a solid steel billet, resulting in a uniform structure without any weld seams. Welded pipes, on the other hand, are produced by forming a flat steel plate into a cylindrical shape and then joining the edges with a weld. The choice between seamless and welded pipes often depends on the specific application and the required pressure rating.

Teräsputken finds extensive use in construction for scaffolding, framing, and structural supports. In the energy sector, they are crucial for oil and gas pipelines, as well as for conveying steam and water in power plants. The plumbing and sanitation industries rely heavily on steel pipes for water distribution and waste removal systems. Furthermore, steel pipes are employed in automotive manufacturing, machine building, and various other industrial processes where robust and reliable fluid or gas conveyance is necessary. The specific grade of steel and any protective coatings applied will determine the pipe's suitability for different environments and corrosive conditions.
