ST42 Carbon steel pipe

The minimum tensile strength of an ST42 carbon steel pipe must be no less than 42 kgf/mm², equivalent to 420 MPa. This type of steel pipe adheres to the German standard for seamless steel pipes and finds extensive application across various fields. These seamless pipes are typically manufactured from common carbon structural steel, low-alloy structural steel, or alloy structural steel, boasting significant production volumes. Their primary use is for fluid transport or as structural components.In summary, the ST42 carbon steel pipe not only meets important standards in terms of mechanical properties like tensile strength but also serves a critical function in industrial applications due to its material composition and manufacturing process, making it suitable for transporting fluids or serving in structural roles.

Product Introduction

‌ST42 Carbon Steel Pipe: Technical Overview & Applications

‌Mechanical Properties
ST42 carbon steel pipe exhibits a minimum tensile strength of ‌420 MPa (42 kgf/mm²)‌, meeting stringent performance criteria for industrial usage.

‌Standard Compliance
As a German standard seamless steel pipe, ST42 conforms to ‌DIN 1629 specifications‌, governing material composition and manufacturing processes for general-purpose applications.

‌Key Characteristics

  • ‌Material Composition‌: Fabricated from non-alloy carbon structural steel (common grades: St37, St44, St52)
  • ‌Production Method‌: Hot-rolled or cold-drawn seamless manufacturing
  • ‌Primary Applications‌:
    • Fluid transportation systems (water, oil, gas)
    • Structural components in machinery and construction
    • Low-to-medium pressure pipeline networks

‌Industrial Advantages

  1. ‌Cost-Efficiency‌: Optimized balance of strength and affordability due to standardized carbon steel composition.
  2. ‌Versatility‌: Suitable for welding, machining, and forming processes.
  3. ‌Corrosion Management‌: Often paired with protective coatings (e.g., galvanization, epoxy) for enhanced durability in harsh environments.

‌Technical Specifications

  • ‌Dimensions‌: 6-600 mm OD, wall thickness 1.0-50 mm (customizable per EN 10220)
  • ‌Pressure Rating‌: PN10-PN40, adaptable to project-specific requirements
  • ‌Certifications‌: Available with 3.1B/3.2 material certificates and EN 10204 compliance

This material is predominantly utilized in European and global markets for infrastructure projects requiring reliable pressure integrity and structural stability.
