EN 10224 L235 Non-Alloy Steel Tubes ERW Galvanized Alloy Steel Pipe For Liquid transport
EN 10224 L235 L275 L355A Non-Alloy Steel Tubes ERW Galvanized Alloy Steel Pipe for Liquid Transport
Introduction
EN 10224 is a European standard that specifies the requirements for non-alloy steel tubes, particularly for use in liquid transport. These tubes are produced using the Electric Resistance Welding (ERW) method and are often galvanized to enhance their corrosion resistance. This article will delve into the material specifications, key features, chemical composition, mechanical properties, steel grades, applications, and possible alternative grades.
Material Specification
The EN 10224 standard covers various grades of non-alloy steel tubes, including L235, L275, and L355A. These grades are designed to meet specific mechanical and chemical properties suitable for liquid transport applications.
Key Features
- Corrosion Resistance: Galvanization provides a protective layer against corrosion.
- High Strength: The mechanical properties of these steel grades ensure durability and reliability.
- Versatility: Suitable for various liquid transport applications, including water, oil, and gas.
- Weldability: The ERW manufacturing process allows for easy welding and fabrication.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| L235 | 235 | 360-510 | 24 | 120 |
| L275 | 275 | 410-550 | 22 | 130 |
| L355A | 355 | 490-620 | 20 | 140 |
Steel Grade
- L235: Suitable for low-pressure applications.
- L275: Designed for medium-pressure applications.
- L355A: Ideal for high-pressure applications.
Application
These non-alloy steel tubes are widely used in various industries for transporting liquids, including:
- Water supply systems
- Oil and gas pipelines
- Chemical processing
- HVAC systems
Possible Alternative Grades
While EN 10224 grades are widely used, alternative grades may also be considered based on specific requirements:
- API 5L: Commonly used for oil and gas pipelines.
- ASTM A53: Suitable for structural and pressure applications.
- EN 10219: For cold-formed welded and seamless structural steel tubes.
