Chatham has a depth of inventory in carbon pipe which translates to fast turnaround for you. At Chatham we carry the common as well as the difficult to find sections. We are constantly adding additional sizes and lengths so be sure to inquire for your specific job requirements. We will nest your lengths with our inventory and make you a cut sheet with your piece marks or cut it to length and piece mark them for you. Let us minimize your waste on your pipe requirements. We also stock pipe in galvanized, stainless, and aluminum. And if there’s a special item we don’t have, we’ll find it quickly and easily, so there’s no worry for you.
From fast turnaround to precision cut-to-length services, We’ve got it all. And, with our extensive mill and vendor contacts, Chatham also has the resources that make your non-standard inquiries no problem at all. Mill Test Reports are available.
Chatham Steel is a leading steel service center that stocks carbon steel, galvanized, and stainless-steel pipe in a variety of diameters, wall thicknesses, and lengths.

Chatham Steel supplies their customers with both seamless and welded pipe in a variety of industry standard metals.
Steel Pipe Products
CARBON STEEL PIPE is a steel alloy made with carbon and iron. It is built to specific chemical composition and mechanical strength standards for use in many types of heavy manufacturing and construction projects due to its exceptional strength and durability. Chatham Steel carries a robust inventory of carbon steel pipe in a variety of sizes and several ASTM grades.
GALVANIZED PIPE is widely used in applications where corrosion resistance is a critical factor. Galvanization is a process of coating steel with a protective layer of zinc. Galvanized carbon steel pipe is the preferred choice for applications where durability, strength, and corrosion resistance are important criteria.
PIPE BOLLARDS are widely used for pedestrian safety from vehicles and come in standard lengths for efficient installation. Chatham Steel carries pipe bollard material in stock lengths or can saw cut the material to any length and offers bare or galvanized finishes.
SCHEDULE is the term used by the American National Standards Institute to describe pipe wall thickness, and schedule 40 and 80 steel pipe refers to the specific thickness of these products. ANSI classifies wall pipe thicknesses into Schedule 10, Schedule 40, Schedule 80, and Schedule 160 specifications.
Used in many types of construction projects, Schedule 40 pipes are generally employed as the standard weight thickness, and pipes with a Schedule 80 thickness provide extra strength. While the steel alloy used for making Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 are identical, Schedule 80 pipes have a thicker wall than Schedule 40 pipes.
ASTM A500 PIPE is produced using flat-rolled steel, the structural pipe is formed through a roller system and welded using electric-resistance welding. Longitudinal butt joints of welded tubing are welded across its thickness to assure structural design strength.
ASTM A53 PIPE is manufactured according to ASTM specifications A53 Type E. Grade A and Grade B are often the preferred choice for industries with pressure applications and conveying gas, vapor, water, or other liquids.
ASTM A847 PIPE is typically left unpainted. The surface will develop a protective layer of rust over time that inhibits further corrosion. The added strength of A847 steel allows for a lighter wall thickness than what would be needed for A500 carbon steel tubing to meet the specified structural requirements.
