Tianjin Brisk Steel is one of the manufacturers of JIS G3101 SS400 ERW Pipe in China. Our products are mainly exported to the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Europe, New Zealand, and other regions.If you would like to learn more about our products, feel free to contact us and send your purchase list.
Key Features
- Two galvanizing options available: pre-galvanized (ASTM A653-type coating applied to coil before welding) and hot-dip galvanized (ASTM A123-type batch coating applied to the finished pipe after welding)
- Hot-dip (post-weld) galvanizing fully coats the weld seam and cut ends - the recommended option for outdoor, buried, coastal, or otherwise corrosive environments
- Pre-galvanized pipe offers a cost-effective, uniform coating for indoor and lower-corrosion applications; weld seam touch-up available on request
- Coating weight and standard confirmed and documented per order - ask for test data specific to your production lot
- Suitable for structural framing, fencing, scaffolding, guardrails, and general fabrication
Coating Comparison
| Pre-Galvanized | Hot-Dip Galvanized (Post-Weld) | |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | ASTM A653 (or equivalent) | ASTM A123 (or equivalent) |
| Coating applied | To coil, before forming/welding | To finished pipe, after welding |
| Weld seam coverage | Requires separate touch-up | Fully coated |
| Best suited for | Indoor / moderate climate | Outdoor / buried / coastal |
Applications
- Structural framing - building frames, support columns, and load-bearing components in construction where corrosion protection extends service life without upgrading to stainless or alloy steel
- Fencing and guardrails - highway barriers, boundary fencing, and handrails exposed to weather year-round; hot-dip galvanized pipe is the typical choice here given continuous outdoor exposure
- Scaffolding - temporary and reusable scaffold tube, where consistent coating quality affects both worker safety and the pipe's reusable service life across projects
- Greenhouse and agricultural structures - frames exposed to high humidity, fertilizer residue, and irrigation water, all of which accelerate corrosion on uncoated steel
- Solar mounting and racking structures - outdoor ground-mount and rooftop support structures with long design-life requirements, typically 20–25 years, where coating durability is a direct project cost factor
- Water and low-pressure fluid conveyance - piping for irrigation, drainage, and non-potable water systems where galvanizing protects against internal and external corrosion
- General indoor and outdoor fabrication - machinery frames, conveyor supports, and general welded assemblies where either coating type may be suitable depending on the indoor/outdoor exposure
For each application, confirm with us whether pre-galvanized or hot-dip galvanized pipe is the better fit based on your specific exposure conditions - see the coating comparison table above.
FAQ
A: Hot-dip (post-weld) galvanized pipe is generally recommended for outdoor, buried, or coastal applications, since the entire pipe including the weld seam is coated after fabrication.
Q: Is the weld seam protected on pre-galvanized pipe?
A: Not automatically - welding disrupts the coil's zinc coating at the seam. Ask us about weld-seam touch-up (zinc-rich paint or thermal spray) if you're ordering pre-galvanized pipe for outdoor use.
Q: Can I request a specific coating weight?
A: Yes - specify ASTM A653 coating class (e.g., G90) for pre-galvanized, or ASTM A123 minimum coating thickness category for hot-dip galvanized, and we'll confirm against our production capability.
Q: Does cutting or welding the pipe after delivery affect the coating?
A: Yes, for both types - any cutting, welding, or drilling done after delivery will locally remove the zinc coating at that point and should be touched up on-site.
