What is Tubing?
Tubing is a hollow wrought product that is long in relation to its cross-section. Tubing can be produced as a seamless or welded product, with sharp or rounded corners.
What is a Pipe?
A Pipe is a round cylindrical tube made from metal that is primarily designed to carry or transport a medium such as fluids or gases.

Similar to Tubes, Pipes can be manufactured in either a seamless or welded process.
