Frequently Asked Questions
Is steel pipe stronger than steel tubing?
Steel pipe and steel tube are designed for different uses, so strength depends on the material grade, wall thickness, size and application. Pipe is commonly specified for moving fluids or gases, while tube is often selected where dimensional accuracy, structure or fabrication requirements are important.
Is stainless steel good for piping?
Yes. Stainless steel is commonly used for piping because it offers strength, durability and good corrosion resistance. It is often specified for industrial applications including petrochemical, food processing, pharmaceutical, marine, power generation and process plant environments.
What is the difference between stainless steel pipe and tube?
Stainless steel pipe is generally specified for transporting fluids or gases and is commonly measured by nominal pipe size. Stainless steel tube is usually measured by outside diameter and wall thickness, and is often used where precision, structure or fabrication requirements are important.
What industries use pipe and tube products?
MDS Petrochemical supplies pipe and tube products for industries including oil, gas, petrochemical, food processing, defence and marine, pharmaceutical, power generation, biomass, energy from waste and process plant applications.
Can MDS Petrochemical support wider pipework requirements?
Yes. MDS Petrochemical can also support requirements for flanges, butt weld pipe fittings, forged pipe fittings, carbon steel fittings, studbolt fasteners and valves.
