DEFINITION OF PIPE
Pipe is a hollow tube with round cross section for the conveyance of products. The products include fluids, gas, pellets, powders and more.
The word pipe is used as distinguished from tube to apply to tubular products of dimensions commonly used for pipeline and piping systems.

On this website, pipes conforming to the dimensional requirements of:
- ASME B36.10M Welded and Seamless Wrought Steel Pipe
- ASME B36.19M Stainless Steel Pipe
MATERIALS FOR PIPE
Engineering companies have materials engineers to determine materials to be used in piping systems. Most pipe is of carbon steel (depending on service) is manufactured to different ASTM standards.
Carbon-steel pipe is strong, ductile, weldable, machinable, reasonably, durable and is nearly always cheaper than pipe made from other materials. If carbon-steel pipe can meet the requirements of pressure, temperature, corrosion resistance and hygiene, it is the natural choice.
Iron pipe is made from cast-iron and ductile-iron. The principal uses are for water, gas and sewage lines.
Plastic pipe may be used to convey actively corrosive fluids, and is especially useful for handling corrosive or hazardous gases and dilute mineral acids.
Other Metals and Alloys pipe made from copper, lead, nickel, brass, aluminium and various stainless steels can be readily obtained. These materials are relatively expensive and are selected usually either because of their particular corrosion resistance to the process chemical, their good heat transfer, or for their tensile strength at high temperatures. Copper and copper alloys are traditional for instrument lines, food processing and heat transfer equipment. Stainless steels are increasingly being used for these.
