1. **Composition**: The steel should have a chemical composition that meets the desired specifications for strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. This often includes controlling the carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, and other elemental contents.
2. **Thickness**: The hot strip should be of the required to be formed into the spiral shape used in SSAW pipes. The thickness can vary depending on the pipe size and application.
3. **Width**: The strip should be wide enough to provide the necessary amount of material for the spiral weld as it is formed into the pipe.
4. **Hardness**: The hardness of the hot strip should be suitable for the manufacturing process. It should not be too hard to be, nor too soft to lose shape during welding and transportation.
5. **Surface Quality**: The strip should have a smooth surface free from defects like cracks, pits, or other imperfections that could affect the integrity of the final pipe.
6. **Dimensional Accuracy**: The dimensions of the strip, including its thickness and width, should be accurate to ensure the consistency and quality of the pipes.
7. **Tensile Strength and Yield Strength**: The steel should have adequate tensile and yield strengths to withstand the internal pressure and external loads that the pipe will be subjected to in service.
8. **Nondestructive Testing**: The strip may need to undergo nondestructive testing such as ultrasound or magnetic particle inspection to ensure there are no internal defects that could lead to failure.
9. **Coating**: Depending on the application, the hot strip may require a protective coating to prevent corrosion during storage and transportation before it is formed into pipes.
10. **Recyclability**: The steel should be made from recyclable materials and be able to be recycled at the end of its useful life, contributing to environmental sustainability.
