MS Pipes are Mild Steel Pipes. These pipes are manufactured using low carbon steel. In fact, the amount of carbon in these pipes is less than 0.25%. Thanks to this, these pipes are generally not too hard. Hence, are easy to use. This also makes it easier to transform them into any shape for different purposes.

MS Pipes and Their Use

Because of their amazing benefits, MS Pipes are used across the world. Due to their ability of transformation into any desired shape, these pipes are ideal for any industry. However, MS Pipes are mostly used for:

  • Transfer of Liquid.
  • Plumbing.
  • Firefighting.
  • Heating
  • Ventilation
  • Air Conditioning

Another excellent quality of MS Pipes is that they are usually coated with paints, varnish, and some other metals. This basically gives a protective layer to these pipes and prevents them from rusting. This also ensures that they last longer than other types of pipes and makes them strong enough to work in tough conditions.

Benefits of MS Pipes

As mentioned earlier, MS Pipes have various benefits because of why they are preferred over other types of pipes. These are:

Cost Effective

The main advantage of using MS Pipes is that using them will not become a burden on your bank account. This is because mild steel is perhaps one of the least expensive types of steel. In fact, mild steel is used in most of our everyday objects such as motorcycle frames, auto-mobile chassis, etc. In addition to this, it is also used to create a wide range of cookware.

Another reason behind why MS Pipes are cost effective is the amount of carbon. Mild steel has carbon content ranging from 0.16% to 0.29%. This amount of carbon generally costs less, but also ensures that the pipes are strong enough to work for different purposes. In addition to this, when created in bulk quantity, the production cost of these pipes is way less than other types of pipes.

Weldable

The second thing which makes them perfect is that they are weldable. The less amount of carbon in them can weld them into any shape. This is not the case with high-carbon steel as it is quite difficult to bend it. Aside from this, electric currents can also travel through MS Pipes without ruining the shape or look of the pipes.

Low Maintenance Cost

One of the most amazing things about MS Pipes is that you don’t have to worry about their maintenance cost of you use them. Because of their toughness, MS Pipes tend to stay durable and functional for a longer period of time. This means that they are relatively cheaper in the long run as you don’t have to worry about fixing them from time to time.

All of this means that their overall costs remain low in their whole life cycle. So, if you’re looking for something that can save you from maintenance costs, then MS Pipes are the way to go.

Durable and Long Lasting

MS Pipes are created using sturdy materials that make them durable and long lasting. They meet strict quality standards, something which makes them highly reliable. In fact, manufacturers are required to meet certain standards while creating these pipes. If they fail to meet certain quality parameters, then their product is not accepted in the market.

This is something which makes the customers relaxed. They know that the pipes they are about to purchase are made from sturdy materials. And that they are spending their money on something worth it.

Carburising

Some people complain about their MS Pipes breaking after being under tension. This is because it has relatively low tensile strength. However, this is a process called carburising that can prevent this from happening. Carburising is basically a heat treatment process in which the steel is heated. During the process, carbon is liberated.

After the heating process, the steel is cooled by quenching, something which makes the surface hard. However, the core of the pipe remains soft and strong. Thus, you can easily increase the strength of your MS Pipes. This is also cheaper considered to what it costs to make other type of pipes stronger.

Recyclable

This is perhaps the most important benefit of MS Pipes. As we all know, we are living in a world that is facing great environment threats. The issue is getting bigger day by day, and one of the biggest reasons behind it is non-biodegradable materials. However, this is not the case with MS Pipes as just like any other types of steel, they can also be recycled.

The best thing is that mild steel can be recycled as many times as desired without losing the quality. So, you don’t have to worry about wasting your money while recycling them.

MS Pipes are being offered in Pakistan by IIL (International Industries ltd). Their head office is located in Karachi. But they also have different branches in Multan, Lahore, Faisalabad, Islamabad, and Peshawar.
