1. Seamless Tubes
2. Welded Tubes
3. ERW Tubes
Seamless tubes are made by piercing a solid cylindrical billet and forcing it through a die to form a hollow tube. Since there is no welding involved, the tube is completely homogeneous, making it ideal for high-pressure applications. Seamless tubes are commonly used in the oil and gas industry and also in hydraulic systems.
ERW (Electric Resistance Welded) tubes are made by passing a high-frequency electrical current through flat steel strips that are rolled into a tube shape. The strips are then welded together using pressure and heat. ERW tubes are commonly used in the manufacturing of automobile parts, furniture, and appliances.

Pipe is a term used for steel tubes that are used to transport fluids and gases. Pipes are generally larger in diameter and are used for high-pressure applications. They are also used in the construction of buildings and bridges as well as in the oil and gas industry.
Square Tube is a term used for steel tubes that have a square cross-section. They are commonly used in the construction of furniture, playground equipment, and fencing.
Rectangular Tube is a term used for steel tubes that have a rectangular cross-section. They are commonly used in the construction of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure as well as in the manufacturing of furniture and appliances.
Round Tube is a term used for steel tubes that have a circular cross-section. They are commonly used in the construction of buildings, bridges, and other infrastructure as well as in the transportation of fluids and gases.
