Why SSAW Pipes Dominate Hydropower Applications
Spiral Submerged Arc Welded (SSAW) pipes offer unmatched advantages for hydropower stations:
✓ Large Diameter Capability (406mm-3000mm) perfect for penstocks
✓ Superior Pressure Resistance with helical weld reinforcement
✓ Cost Efficiency – 25-40% savings versus LSAW alternatives
✓ Flexible Lengths – Minimizing field welds in remote locations
Critical Hydropower Applications:
• Penstock systems (90% of modern installations)
• Draft tubes and surge chambers
• Cooling water conduits
• Sediment flushing pipelines
