In the article on types of seamless steel pipes, Bao Tin Steel mentioned hydraulically seamless steel pipes, but only briefly. So in this article, Bao Tin will go deeper into hydraulic steel pipes. Please continue to follow for more details.
Types of hydraulic seamless steel pipes
There are two main types of hydraulic seamless steel pipe which are galvanized hydraulic seamless pipe and hydraulic black seamless pipe.
Galvanized hydraulic seamless pipes:
- Galvanized hydraulic cast steel pipes are coated with a layer of zinc plating on the surface to increase durability and prevent corrosion.
- The zinc coating also helps increase the gloss and smoothness of the pipe surface, increasing aesthetics.
Hydraulic black cast pipe:
- Hydraulic black seamless steel pipes are manufactured from black steel (not galvanized).
- Often used in applications that do not require high aesthetics or do not have to work in corrosive environments.

Both types of pipes have high strength and hardness, can withstand high pressure and temperature, and are resistant to corrosion and seawater corrosion. However, galvanized hydraulic pipes have better durability and longevity due to being coated with a galvanized layer to protect the surface.
The choice between galvanized and non-galvanized hydraulic cast steel pipes depends on the technical requirements and the usage environment. If the application requires high aesthetics or operates in corrosive environments, galvanized hydraulic casting pipes should be used. If you do not require high aesthetics or do not have to work in a corrosive environment, non-galvanized hydraulic casting pipes may be a suitable choice.
