Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes

Ratnakar Group manufactures Structural Tubes under the brand name Ratnakar HR GTX-500. Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes is manufactured conforming to IS:4923 and IS:1161 for square and rectangular sections respectively.

Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes can be manufactured up to a maximum size of 72x72 mm for square sections, 96x48 mm for rectangular sections. The thickness can vary from 1.2 mm to 4.2 mm.

Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes has recently forayed into retail space under the initiative Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes, providing consumers with 360 degree solutions right from the design to the fabrication stage. Adding to the product portfolio as well as catering to the changing consumer demands.

Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes has multiple applications ranging from architectural, industrial, infrastructural, general engineering to power plants, solar power plants, steel industry, railways etc.

Process of GTX 500 Pipes

Quality Control

The quality of our product is controlled during the manufacturing process. It starts with slitting the strip edges, continues with speed, temperature control during the high frequency induction welding and is followed by online non destructive eddy current testing directly after welding. Off-line, drift and flattening tests are conducted. This is all within our ISO 9000, ISO 14001 & OHSAS 18001 quality management system.

Advantages of Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes

The excellent distribution of material around the axis of these steel pipes for remarkable strength qualities and thus offers decisive advantages as regards to application technology.
Their higher strength to weight ratio could result in upto 30% savings in steel.

Cost Effective

By virtue of its shape, Hollow sections have high Radius of Gyration and other properties resulting in savings in Material, Transportation and Fabrication cost.
Less Surface area compared to equivalent conventional sections results in savings in Paint and Labour cost.

Corrosion Resistant

Less exposed surface area combined with superior quality raw material results very less corrosion in compare to leading brands.
Smooth uniform profiles of sections minimizes dust and moisture accumulation.

Corrosion Resistant

Less exposed surface area combined with superior quality raw material results very less corrosion in compare to leading brands.
Smooth uniform profiles of sections minimizes dust and moisture accumulation.

Concentric Strength

By virtue of its shape, Hollow sections have high Radius of Gyration resulting in higherconcentric strength.
Due to closeness of the section there will be higher torsional rigidity compared to conventional sections.

Better lateral stability and lower wind drag.
Enables weight reduction of upto 30%.

Convenience of Fabrication

Due to less weight and smoother profile, fabrication is easier.Also minimum use of gusset plates expedites the fabrication process.

Creativity

Due to higher torsional rigidity and better moment resistance on both the axis, bending of hollow section is easier compared to open sections. This gives flexibility to the architects to shape their structures and express their creativity.Smooth profile of Ratnakar GTX-500 HR Pipes enhances the aesthetic appeal of the structures.

Most suitable for usage in exposed environment.
