     With the rapid development of China's economic construction, the consumption of stainless steel continues to increase, and the demand for stainless steel pipes is also expanding, and the market prospects are promising. The market demand for stainless steel seamless pipes is reflected in basic industries such as petroleum, chemical, power generation, etc., which account for one-third of the total consumption of stainless steel seamless pipes, as well as automotive, shipbuilding, construction and environmental protection industries. Larger demand. Stainless steel welded pipes are mainly used in heat exchanger tubes, fluid pipes, pressure pipes, mechanical structural pipes, urban landscapes, and other industries, with an annual consumption of about 700,000 tons. Industrial stainless steel welded pipe demand is relatively high, and the production process is mature. The annual industrial stainless steel welded pipe in China is about 150,000 tons, and some still need to be imported. From the perspective of domestic stainless steel pipe products, the steel grade is mainly austenitic steel; the product varieties include: seamless steel pipe including cold drawn pipe, cold rolled pipe, hot extruded pipe, centrifugally cast pipe, spinning pipe; welded pipe includes : Pipe welding such as plasma welding, argon arc welding, submerged arc welding, light speed welding and high frequency welding. The stainless steel pipes that can be produced basically cover the specifications of various countries in the world. The specifications and varieties of stainless steel shaped pipes are more than 100 kinds. The product uses many fields of industry and civil use. However, in general, domestic stainless steel pipes have a certain gap with market demand in terms of varieties, specifications and quantities.
