Square pipes

Square steel pipes are basically tubular products made with a weld, either from plates, sheets, coils, strips, or bands. Square pipes are widely used for structure, electric power transmission tower projects, piling, water, oil & gas pipeline engineering, mechanical industry, municipal projects, roads, and its auxiliary facilities.

Apex Engineering is a high-quality manufacturer and exporter of Square steel pipes in India. Apex Engineering is a large supplier of square steel pipes to companies and service providers across India. Square steel pipes are suitable for welding, bending, flanging, and similar forming operations.

Square steel pipe is one of the most important products for Apex Engineering. Our pipe railings have elegant modern designs that are perfect for domestic and commercial establishment. These pipe railings are very reliable and durable which are carefully fabricated to ensure flawless fabrication.

We have marked a distinct position in the market by providing a high quality array of square pipes that is appreciated for their durability, high strength and reliability.

Types of Square Pipes

Square pipes are formed from coils and then ran through a series of dies. They are welded from the inside to form their shape. Square tubes are generally used for maintenance and structural purposes. Some examples of applications would be building construction, railings, and sign posts. They are measured by their outside dimensions and their wall thickness.

Square tube is commonly available in Aluminum, Stainless Steel, Hot Rolled Steel and Cold Rolled Steel.

MS Square Pipes

MS Square Steel Pipes are available in different length, height, diameters and widening gap range, these pipes are famous among our clients for their corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. MS steel tubes are used widely used for all kinds of structural applications and fabrication projects where greater strength and superior corrosion resistance is required. All our MS square tube products are supplied along with relevant certifications such as PMI reports, EN 10204 3.1 certificate, as well as special test reports from NABL approved lab, as may be required by customers.

SS Square Pipes

SS pipes are in different grades, categories and in shapes. There are applications that require high strength and ductility, especially in high pressure fluid flow systems. The SS Square pipe can be of any grade ranging from 304 basic stainless steel to duplex steels and higher alloys like titanium, chromium, nickel and copper alloy. Our SS Square tubes and pipes are used in high temperature services to high corrosion risk. The SS hollow pipe can with stand the pressure excerpted on the walls when a bend, curve of direction in the piping is applied.

FAQ Questions

What is Square Pipe?

Square pipes are basically tubular products made with a weld, either from plates, sheets, coils, strips, or bands. Square pipes are widely used for structure, electric power transmission tower projects, piling, water, oil & gas pipeline engineering, mechanical industry, municipal projects, roads, and its auxiliary facilities. They are welded from inside to form their shape.

Square Pipes are available in the following metal: Aluminum, Mild Steel, Stainless Steel. Square pipes are generally used in maintenance and structural purpose. Square tube is formed from coil and then ran through a series of dies. Its welded from inside to form its shape.

Square tubes have high tensile strength and are therefore extremely resistant to temperatures and pressures. Compared to other types of mechanical pipes, square pipes requires less process therefore, it can reduce the cost.

Calculation of Square Pipe?

Pipe weight calculation formula

To calculate mass of any object we can use the following formula:
MASS (M)= Density (D) X VOLUME (V)

Pipe weight is also calculated using the same equation. Pipe weight is normally expressed in pipe weight per meter of length or pipe weight per foot of length.

Empty Pipe Weight means pipe weight without any content inside it. So, it is the weight of the metal present in the pipe

Let’s calculate the weight of a 6 inch Square pipe with Sch. 40 as pipe thickness. From ASME B 36.10M

Pipe OD=168.3 mm

Pipe Thickness=7.11 mm

Hence, ID=168.3-2*7.11=154.08 mm

Metal Cross Sectional Area=(Π)*(168.32 – 154.082)/4=3600.4565 mm2

So volume for a unit length of pipe=3600.4565 * 1= 3600.4565 mm3 =(3600.4565/1000000) =0.0036004565 m3

So now we have to multiply this volume by Square pipe density (7850Kg/m3) to get the actual weight of 1 m of pipe length.

So Metal weight of 1 m of Pipe length=0.0036004565*7850=28.26358356 Kg.

To calculate the pipe weight for more lengths simply multiply the above value with the actual length of the pipe.
