When industries talk about durability, strength, and corrosion resistance, the name SS ERW Pipe (Stainless Steel Electric Resistance Welded Pipe) often comes first. Unlike traditional pipes, SS ERW Pipes are made by cold-forming stainless steel strips and welding them longitudinally using high-frequency resistance welding technology.
At Udhhyog, we manufacture and supply SS ERW Pipes that meet IS, ASTM, and international standards. Our pipes are used in water supply, oil and gas, construction, structural applications, and fire safety systems.

Understanding SS ERW Pipes in Detail
The term ERW means Electric Resistance Welding. Instead of forging or seamless processes, these pipes are made by rolling stainless steel coils into a cylindrical shape and welding the seam using electric resistance heat and pressure.
Key Features of SS ERW Pipes:
- Smooth internal and external surface
- Excellent dimensional accuracy
- Cost-effective compared to seamless pipes
- Long service life with minimal maintenance
- Available in round, square, and rectangular shapes
Manufacturing Process
The SS ERW Pipe manufacturing process at Udhhyog ensures top-quality output:
- Raw Material Selection – Stainless steel strips or coils.
