Metallurgy is the science and technology of metals, involving the extraction of metals from their ores and their subsequent modification for use. This field encompasses the chemical, physical, and atomic properties of metals and how they form alloys.12

Tubes are manufactured using two primary methods: welding strips together or producing seamless tubes from solid metal rounds or blooms. Seamless tubes are made by piercing a solid metal piece, creating a hollow center, and then shaping it into a tube through various rolling processes. Welded tubes are formed by shaping a metal strip into a tubular form and then joining the seam using welding techniques, such as electric-resistance welding or arc welding. These processes allow for the creation of tubes with specific dimensions and properties for diverse applications.34
