Rendifield Plain Ends Uncoated Steel Pipes
Plain ends uncoated steel pipes refer to carbon steel pipes that have no additional surface coatings (such as galvanising or painting) and have plain ends rather than threaded or grooved ends.
These pipes are supplied in their raw steel form and are widely used in industrial and fabrication applications where internal or external protective coatings are not immediately required — or where custom coatings and welding are applied after installation.
Key Features
-
Plain, smooth ends for easy butt-welding or custom end preparation (threading, grooving, or flanging)
-
High strength and rigidity, suitable for heavy-duty fluid conveyance and mechanical use
-
No surface coating, allowing flexibility for custom treatments (galvanising, painting, or lining)
-
Typically supplied in standard mill length, 6 m.
Applications
-
Piling and foundation pipes
-
Process and utility piping in plants
-
Fire protection risers (coated after fabrication)
-
General fabrication and workshop applications
