1. Identify the Application

Different applications require different types of steel pipes:

• Construction & Infrastructure: ERW pipes, MS hollow sections

• Water Supply & Plumbing: GI pipes, black pipes

• Fire Safety: Firefighting pipes

• Agriculture & Borewells: Casing pipes, GI pipes

Each pipe type is engineered for specific pressure levels, environmental conditions, and performance standards.

2. Check the Material Grade

Steel pipes are available in various grades such as MS (Mild Steel), GI (Galvanized Iron), GP (Galvanized Plain), and stainless steel. Choose the material based on corrosion resistance, tensile strength, and ductility:

• GI/GP Pipes – Ideal for corrosion resistance

• MS Pipes – Suitable for welding and low-pressure usage

• Stainless Steel Pipes – High durability, ideal for aggressive environments

3. Ensure Compliance with Standards

Always choose steel pipes that adhere to national and international quality standards like:

• IS: , IS: , ASTM, API, or ISO
  These certifications ensure reliability, safety, and performance.

4. Consider Pipe Dimensions & Thickness

Based on your project, select the appropriate:

• Outer diameter (OD)

• Wall thickness (schedule or class)

5. Evaluate the Coating and Finish

For long-term protection against rust and environmental damage:

• GI pipes are hot-dip galvanized.

• GP pipes are zinc-coated using electro-galvanization.

• Color coated sheets offer additional aesthetic and anti-corrosion benefits for roofing and cladding.

6. Partner with a Trusted Manufacturer

Choosing a reputed manufacturer ensures consistent quality and after-sales support.
