Hello All.

Am I correct in saying steel boiler tubes are cold drawn seamless tube?

Thanks.

There's no reason why a boiler tube could not be rolled and welded providing that the steel is the correct grade for the approved design, with the appropriate certificates and the welder is correctly coded.

If you're talking fire-tubes and you're going to expand them in rather than weld then you don't want welded seam tube

Sorry, I assumed that this was about tube for a boiler outer shell.
