The comparison of seamless tube/pipe and welded tube/pipe

Type Advantages Disadvantages

Welded Tube/Pipe


(Fit for mass production)

  • Uniform wall thickness, internal surface is in good quality
  • High production efficiency and low costs
  • Easy to manufacture larger diameter tubes/pipes
  • Short production term
  • Easy to control prodcts quality


  • Poor flexibility, not available to produce various of specifications but small quantity products
  • Welding seam is hard and require skilled person and easy to cause troubles
  • Difficult to clean the welding line
  • Difficult to control ovality
  • Strict dimension requirements for tantalum strips


Seamless Tube/Pipe

(Fit for customized production)


  • Available to produce small specification tubes/pipes and capillary tube/pipe
  • Excellent flexibility, available to produce various of specifications but small quantity products
  • Uniform performance of the whole tube/pipe


  • Uniformity of the wall thickness is difficult to control
  • Longer productivity term but lower finished products rate
  • Complexed equipment requires high investment capital
  • Hard to product large diameter tube/pipe
