The method for making cold-drawn seamless pipes involves taking a round ‘billet’ or bar of steel and boring it in the center, turning it, cutting it, heating it to make it more pliable, then ‘drawing’ it (extruding or pulling it) to make it a longer and thinner tube. JIS seamless pipe according to alloy, stainless steel or carbon.

It tests steel’s properties, hardness, resistance to corrosion, pitting, heat treating processes and others. The results are listed in a main JIS steel grade for steel pipe as below.
