Spiral seam Vs longitudnal seam Pipe
(OP)
Are there any issues for using spiral seam pipe instead of longitudnal seam pipe for cooling water service at normal temperature and 60 psig pressure.
Thanks

The main issue is that spiral seam is a lot cheaper!
In the early days spiral wound was not so good, but it is now.

The main problem with spiral wound is corrosion at the welds.
I guess, if it is a cooling water line, there should be no problem.
