GI Pipes

Galvanized Pipes (GI pipes)

Galvanization is a process in which iron or steel is coated with a layer of zinc to protect them from corrosion or rusting. Pure iron is very ductile and contains no carbon. The metal zinc lasts long and helps to increase the life of iron or steel.

Galvanized Iron (GI) Pipes are manufactured using mild steel strips of Low Carbon Steel Coils. The strips are passed through a series of fin rolls to give them a circular shape. The slit ends of the strips are then welded together by continuously passing high frequency electric current across the edges. The welded steel pipes are then passed through sizing sections where any dimensional deviations are corrected. The pipes are then cut into desired lengths by automatic cutting machines.

How to determine GI pipe ?

  • Light- Class A: The pipe is marked in yellow color for identification.
  • Medium- Class B: The pipe is marked in blue color for identification.
  • Heavy - Class C: The pipe is marked in red color for identification.
