Manufacture of tubes, pipes, hollow profiles and related fittings, of steel
NACE v2.0 Code: C24.20
About manufacture of tubes, pipes, hollow profiles and related fittings, of steel
NACE code 24.20 covers the manufacture of tubes, pipes, hollow profiles, and related fittings made of steel. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader manufacturing sector, providing essential components for a wide range of industries, including construction, energy, transportation, and industrial machinery. The production of steel tubes and pipes is a key enabler for the development of modern infrastructure and the efficient transportation of fluids and gases.
Production process
The main production techniques used in this industry involve the transformation of steel billets, sheets, or coils into various tubular products. This is typically achieved through processes such as seamless tube rolling, welding, and drawing. Seamless tubes are produced by piercing and elongating solid steel billets, while welded tubes are formed by bending and joining steel sheets or strips. These manufacturing methods allow for the creation of a diverse range of tube and pipe products, catering to the specific needs of different applications.
Production inputs
The primary inputs required for the manufacture of steel tubes and pipes include steel raw materials, such as billets, sheets, and coils, as well as various alloying elements and consumables used in the production process. Additionally, this industry relies on specialized machinery and equipment, including rolling mills, welding machines, and drawing tools, to transform the raw materials into the desired tubular products.
Production outputs
The main outputs of this industry are steel tubes, pipes, and hollow profiles, which are then consumed by a variety of other NACE codes, including 41.20 Construction of residential and non-residential buildings, 42.21 Construction of utility projects, 25.11 Manufacture of metal structures and parts of structures, and 28.13 Manufacture of other pumps and compressors. These steel tubular products are essential components in the construction, energy, transportation, and industrial machinery sectors, enabling the efficient movement and containment of fluids, gases, and other materials.
