DESCRIPTION

2″ Schedule 40 Steel Pipe (2.375″ od x 0.154″ wall = 2.067″ id)*

HR steel pipe, or hot rolled steel pipe, is a type of carbon steel pipe that’s made by rolling heated steel into a hollow tube.

How it’s made

  1. Start with a large rectangular block of steel called a billet
  1. Heat the billet to a temperature above its recrystallization point, usually over 1700°F
  2. Pass the billet through a series of rollers to compress it into a large roll
  3. Pass the hot roll through a piercing rod to create a hollow tube

Properties

  • Malleable: The high temperatures make the steel easier to shape and form
  • Durable and tough: Hot rolled steel is more durable and tougher than other types of steel
  • Scaly finish: The steel has a scaly finish that can be removed by grinding, pickling, or sandblasting
  • Residual stress: Hot rolled steel has residual stress, which is self-balanced but can affect the steel’s performance

Uses

  • Construction: Hot-rolled steel is often used in construction projects
  • Railroad tracks: Hot-rolled steel is often used in railroad tracks

Structural and mechanical applications: Hot-rolled steel is often used in structural and mechanical applications

These are not stocked as pre-cut items. Because each order is cut specifically to customer specifications, all cut materials are considered custom products and are not eligible for cancellation, return, or exchange once production has begun. Our standard cutting tolerances are:

  • Length: +0.125″ / -0.062″
  • During the cutting process, the saw blade removes approximately 1/16″ (kerf) of material. This is a normal part of the manufacturing process and is already included within the stated cutting tolerances.
