British Steel has two large modern pipe mills

at Hartlepool in the North East and at Corby
in the Midlands. Both mills manufacture
Electric Welded (EW) hot finished structural
hollow sections in two standard grades
of S275J2H and S355J2H in accordance
with the European Standard EN 10210,
ensuring a standard product is available to
satisfy the most rigorous of structural and
mechanical applications.
British Steels worldwide experience
continues to aim at satisfying you, the
customer, with respect to quality, delivery,
price and level of service. All our pipe
manufacturing mills are ISO 9002 approved.

Extended Range of Hollow Sections

In addition to the principal range of EW hot
finished hollow sections manufactured by
British Steel Tubes & Pipes we offer an
extended range of seamless circular hollow
sections and in conjunction with the
Nakajima Steel Pipe company, an extended
range of Square EW hollow sections. The
extended range allows the designer to
consider circular sections up to 660mm
diameter in thickness from 16mm up to
50mm thick and square sections up to 800
x 800 x 50mm thick. Specification
requirements and grades are similar to our
extensive EW hot finished range.

Electric Welded
Coiled strip is slit to the required width and
the front end of the new coil is joined to the
back end of the previous coil, by a flash butt
weld, to produce a continuous length. Prior
to butt welding sufficient strip of the
previous coil is accumulated into a looping
pit to allow the forming process to continue
whilst the strip is stationary at the welding
position.
The continuous strip is then passed through
the forming mill, where a series of rolls form
the strip into the required shape.
High-frequency electric resistance induction
welding completes the formation of
the basic pipe.
Immediately after welding, the external weld
bead is removed and the weld area is water
cooled. The pipe then passes through an inline non-destructive testing unit which
inspects the weld area using surface wave
and shear wave ultrasonics or eddy
currents. The pipe is then sized to produce
the required diameter and is cut to length by
a rotary cut-off machine.
Pipe samples are regularly subjected to
flattening and drift expansion tests and
samples are also examined metallographically to ensure optimum weld

quality. Pipes not requiring stretch reduction

to produce the final section diameter or size
are passed into a furnace where they are
heated to a temperature between 850 and
950 degrees C prior to being rolled into the
final circular, square or rectangular profile.
The process produces sections from
139.7mm to 193.7mm diameter,
100 x 100mm to 150 x 150mm square and
120 x 80mm to 200 x 100mm rectangular.
Electric Weld Stretch Reduced
Electric welded pipe forms the feedstock for
the stretch reduction process. Lengths of
168.3mm diameter pipe up to 120m long
are heated to a temperature between 950
and 1050 degrees C, depending on the
steel grade and mechanical properties
required. The hot pipes pass through a
series of roll-stand passes in which they are
stretch-reduced to the required diameter
or rectangular size.
The process produces sections from
48.3mm to 114.3mm diameter and
40 x 40mm to 100 x 100mm square and
50 x 30mm to 120 x 80mm rectangular.
After cutting to length sections are passed
on to cooling racks where continuous
turning ensures uniform cooling. Sections
are tested for tensile and fracture toughness
properties as required by specification.

Coils of strip weighing up to 20 tonnes
each are unwound prior to feeding into
the process line. A continuous strip is
produced by welding the front end of one
coil to the tail end of the preceding one.
The continuous strip is accumulated into a
300 tonnes capacity coil accumulator, from
which it is drawn off into the forming line.
The edges are machined to give correct
width prior to entry into the pipe forming
line. Through a series of rolls, the strip is
formed and presented to the HFI welder to
join together the strip edges, which
completes the formation of the basic pipe.

Immediately after welding, the external

weld flash is trimmed. The pipe passes
under ultrasonic probes to check the weld
integrity and is cut to length by a carbide
tooled cut-off machine. Samples are taken
from selected pipes and subjected to
flattening, micro and macro tests and
examinations to confirm weld quality.
Lengths of pipe up to 15m long are passed
into a furnace where they are heated to a
temperature between 850 and 1000
degrees C prior to being rolled into the
final circular, square or rectangular profile.
The process produces sections from
219mm to 508mm diameter, 160 x 160mm
to 400 x 400mm square and 200 x 120mm
to 500 x 300mm rectangular. Samples are
tested for tensile and fracture toughness
properties as required by specification.

Electrical Weld Quality

The quality of an Electric Weld (EW) is

assessed by standard destructive tests
such as drift expanding and flattening and
by inspecting the microstructure of the weld
area. This testing augments the non destructive testing and provides a regular
feedback to the mill on weld quality.
The objective is to ensure that the weld area
is as strong, if not stronger than the body of
the pipe. The microstructure is inspected to
ensure that the weld heat affected zone
is symmetrical and satisfactory with regard
to width and structure, that there is
adequate diversion and that all the
previously liquid metal and oxides have
been removed from the weld region. Having
established that the welding conditions are
correct and that the weld is satisfactory it is
then essential to ensure that the conditions
under which the sample was taken do not
change.
There are many aspects of the pipe making
process which affect welding quality. These
include setting of the forming mill, strip
presentation to the forming mill, width of the
ingoing strip and control of the welding
temperature.
The two main variables which can affect the
weld temperature are the strip speed and
thickness of the strip edge.
Strip speed variation is dealt with
by measuring the strip speed with a wheel
driving a measuring instrument which runs
on the strip and is used to control the
welder power output. Any variation in strip
speed is therefore directly compensated for.

Strip edge thickness is governed principly

by control of the thickness of the slit strip.
Compensation for strip edge thickness and
other variations is made by keeping the
temperature of the weld region constant.
This is measured immediately after the
formation of the weld by a two colour
pyrometer and the measurement used in
computerised control loop to adjust the
speed power system and so maintain a
constant weld temperature.
The strip edges are heated to a welding
temperature by the high frequency induction
welder. The welder is a large radio frequency
oscillator producing an alternating current of
200-400kHz. Due to the two phenomena
associated with radio frequency electric
current (ie the skin effect and the proximity
effect) this current concentrates in the
surface of the strip edge and the resistance
to the current flow causes localised heating.
At the weld head the two heated edges are
brought together and pressure is applied to
form a forged weld. All previously liquid
metal is expelled together with any oxides
and the plastic area behind the heated
edges is upset. The geometry of the weld
area is very important and the ingoing and
outgoing circumferences are measured to
assess the amount of metal which has been
pushed out. The symmetry and dimensions
of the heat pattern are regularly checked by
cutting a sample from the tube, polishing
and etching a cross section of the weld and
examining the microstructure under a
microscope.
Subsequent heat treatment transforms the
microstructure to completely remove
evidence of the weld heat affected zone.
