Seamless Aluminum Pipe 2024/3003/5083/6061/7075

Seamless aluminum tube/pipe is made without welds. This gives it better strength, pressure resistance, and corrosion performance than welded pipes. Welded pipes, including ERW (Electric Resistance Welded), are made by rolling and welding metal sheets. They have a weld seam, which can be a weak point. Seamless pipes are extruded from solid billets. This creates a uniform structure with no welds. ERW pipes are cost-effective and common in low-pressure uses like fencing or furniture. However, they may not hold up well under high stress or corrosive environments. Seamless aluminum pipes are ideal for tough applications. They are widely used in aerospace, automotive, and fluid systems.

Extruded Seamless Aluminum Tube

Extruded seamless aluminum tube is a hollow cylindrical aluminum product made by direct extrusion through a reverse extruder without any welds. Compared with welded tubes, this kind of aluminum tube is stronger and more reliable in high pressure and structural applications.

Cold Drawn Seamless Aluminum Tube

Cold Drawn Seamless Aluminum Tube is an aluminum tube manufactured without welding and cold-worked through drawing, which improves dimensional precision, surface finish, and mechanical strength.The tube is pulled through a die and mandrel at room temperature. This process is ideal for high-tolerance and critical structural or fluid-carrying applications.
