EN 10216-2 P235GH / P265GH Seamless Pipe Manufacturer, Supplier & Exporter – Inox Steel India

Inox Steel India is a leading manufacturer and exporter of EN 10216-2 Seamless Carbon Steel Pipes in grades P235GH and P265GH, widely used in industrial boilers, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, economizers, refinery piping, superheated steam lines, and thermal power plants.

EN 10216-2 is the European standard for non-alloy pressure steel pipes, designed specifically for high-temperature and high-pressure applications in thermal, chemical, and petrochemical industries. These grades are known for excellent creep resistance, pressure resistance, high-temperature stability, weldability, and dimensional accuracy.

Our seamless boiler tubes are manufactured through hot-finishing (HFS), cold-finishing (CDS), normalizing heat treatment, hardness control, hydro testing, and 100% NDT, ensuring compliance with international boiler safety standards.

P235GH is the standard pressure steel grade, whereas P265GH is the higher-strength boiler quality steel suitable for more demanding steam and pressure applications.

What Is EN 10216-2 P235GH / P265GH Pipe?

EN 10216-2 covers seamless steel tubes for pressure purposes, intended for use at elevated temperatures. These pipes are designed to withstand:

  • High steam pressure
  • Continual thermal cycling
  • Boiler furnace temperatures
  • Chemical corrosion
  • Long-term creep stress

These pipes are mainly used for:

  • Industrial boilers
  • Superheater tubes
  • Heat exchanger tubes
  • Refinery process heaters
  • Thermal power plant pipelines
  • Chemical process heaters
  • Pressure vessels

The GH suffix means “GeHärtet” in German — indicating suitability for high-temperature pressure service.

Manufacturing Process:

  1. Raw Material & Chemical Testing: Steel billets inspected for chemistry (C, Mn, P, S control).
  2. Hot Forming / Hot Finishing (HFS): Billet pierced and rolled into seamless shell.
  3. Cold Drawing / Precision Sizing: For exact OD/ID tolerance and improved surface finish.
  4. Normalizing Heat Treatment (Mandatory): Restores material properties, grain structure, and creep resistance.
  5. Hydrostatic Testing: Ensures internal pressure strength.
  6. NDT Testing (Critical for Pressure Pipes): UT, ECT, MPI as per EN standards.
  7. Dimensional Inspection: Straightness, wall thickness, ovality & length accuracy. 

Pipes are supplied in normalized (+N) condition to handle high-pressure and high-temperature duty cycles safely.
