As per the strategic goal of "Made in China 2025" and the "Internet Plus" action plan, intelligent manufacturing will dominate the top-level design and roadmap of Chinese steel pipe industry during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, thus giving priority topromoting a digital, web-based and intelligent production of steel tubes. The 13th Five-Year Plan and "One Belt And One Road" will bring good opportunities for the development of steel pipe industry. Read more >>

Hot Fields Lead the Future Direction of Tube Industry

Auto Industry

Application of Seamless Steel Pipes in Automotive Manufacturing

Seamless steel pipes are extensively used in automobiles. They are used for automotive exhaust systems, rear axle of the chassis, front axle assembly of the chassis, air-conditioning system, steering damp assembly, liquid storage, transmission system, seats, side guard door beams and etc.

Automobile high-strength fasteners are also made of stainless seamless steel pipes. As critical auto parts, domestic supply of high-strength fasteners in China is less than 25% and most are imported from foreign countries. Currently, Baosteel (one of the most famous steel manufacturers in China) and other domestic enterprises are optimistic about the market, and committed to the development of stainless seamless steel pipes.

Among the imported vehicles or components, about 2/3 automotive-specific seamless steel pipes are high-precision welded seamless steel pipes and high-precision welded cold-drawn (or cold-rolled) seamless steel pipes. But in China, these products lag behind in development and still depend on import. Read more >>

Oil and Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines

New-type Urbanizationwill propelthe development of urban gas pipe networks and product oil (gasoline and diesel oil) pipe networks. China's demand for natural gas willup to 314 billion cbm in 2020 from 178 billion cbm in 2014, predicted by the International Energy Agency in Medium-Term Gas Market Report.
