Seamless Copper Tubing

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

The Engineering Excellence of Seamless Production

Seamless copper tubing is defined by its lack of a longitudinal weld or joint, making it the highest quality format for pressure-bearing applications. Unlike welded tubes, which have a "seam" that can be a point of structural weakness or chemical vulnerability, seamless tubes are produced through a solid-billet extrusion or "piercing" process. This ensures that the grain structure of the copper is uniform around the entire circumference of the tube. At Zhejiang Jingliang, our seamless production line utilizes advanced planetary rolling and cold-drawing technology to achieve incredible dimensional precision and surface smoothness. This process not only increases the mechanical strength of the copper but also ensures that there are no internal "shadows" or ridges that could cause turbulent flow or sediment buildup. For industries where failure is not an option—such as aerospace, medical gas, and high-pressure HVAC—seamless tubing is the only acceptable standard.

The integrity of a seamless tube allows it to handle much higher internal pressures and external stresses compared to welded alternatives. This is why our seamless tubing is favored for modern refrigerants like R410A and CO2, which operate at significantly higher pressures than older gases. Our manufacturing process includes multiple "reduction" stages where the tube is drawn through diamond dies to reach its final size. Between these stages, the copper is annealed in a controlled-atmosphere furnace to restore its ductility. This results in a tube that is both strong and easy to work with in the field. Whether it is supplied as a 500kg Level Wound Coil or a 6-meter straight length, our seamless copper tubing represents the pinnacle of metallurgical consistency, providing engineers with a predictable, high-performance material for their most complex thermal and fluid transport challenges.

Applications for Critical Infrastructure

Seamless copper tubing is used wherever safety and pressure integrity are paramount. Its most common application is in the HVACR industry, specifically for the internal coils and external line sets of high-efficiency air conditioners and chillers. In the medical field, it is the standard for oxygen and nitrous oxide delivery systems, where the "seamless" nature ensures no risk of leaks behind hospital walls. Industrially, it is used for hydraulic lines in heavy machinery, fuel delivery lines for engines, and as heat exchanger tubes in nuclear and thermal power plants. It is also essential in the manufacturing of electrical components, such as induction furnace coils, where the continuous grain structure ensures optimal electrical conductivity. In the automotive sector, it is used for brake lines and oil cooling systems, where vibration resistance and high-pressure performance are mandatory requirements for vehicle safety.

Advantages of the Seamless Format

The primary advantage is structural safety; without a weld seam, the tube has a uniform burst pressure rating, making it much safer for high-pressure gas applications. It also offers superior corrosion resistance; weld seams can often be the first point of "intergranular corrosion," but a seamless tube lacks this vulnerability. From a fabrication perspective, seamless tubing is much easier to flare, bend, and expand. Because the metal is consistent all the way around, it won't split or crack at a "weak point" during heavy manipulation. This leads to lower scrap rates in automated manufacturing lines. Additionally, the internal bore is exceptionally smooth, which reduces the "pressure drop" in the system, meaning pumps and compressors can operate more efficiently. Finally, seamless tubing provides better aesthetic quality for exposed installations and a more reliable surface for soldering and brazing, as there are no weld-residues to interfere with the filler metal flow.

Payment, Shipping, and Quality Assurance

We offer seamless tubing in the widest range of tempers and sizes in the industry. Payment is generally T/T or L/C at sight. We specialize in high-volume export, providing seaworthy packaging that includes moisture-proof barriers and steel-strapped wooden crates. Every order of seamless tubing is accompanied by an inspection report that includes chemical analysis, mechanical property tests, and a certificate of Eddy Current Testing. We have the capacity to provide custom sizes that are not available from "off-the-shelf" distributors, making us a key partner for OEM manufacturers. Our logistics team handles all aspects of international shipping, ensuring that the tubes are not bent or scratched during loading. We offer CIF, FOB, and DDP terms to accommodate different buyer needs, ensuring a smooth and transparent transaction from factory to warehouse.

  • Q: Is all your copper tubing seamless?
  • A: Yes, for the HVAC and Medical sectors, we exclusively produce seamless tubing to ensure the highest safety and performance standards.
  • Q: How do I know if the tube is truly seamless?
  • A: Seamless tubes lack any internal or external longitudinal lines. We also provide Mill Test Certificates that specify the manufacturing method as "Seamless" according to ASTM or EN standards.
  • Q: What is the maximum length of seamless tubing?
  • A: In straight lengths, we can produce up to 12 meters. In coils (LWC), we can provide continuous lengths exceeding 1,000 meters depending on the size.
