An apparatus line for manufacturing seamless steel pipes and tubes includes: a heating apparatus for heating a steel raw material; a piercing apparatus for piercing the heated steel raw material thus forming a hollow material; and a rolling apparatus for applying working to the hollow material to form a seamless steel pipe having a predetermined shape. A cooling apparatus is arranged on an exit side of the rolling apparatus. A heated steel raw material is worked by the rolling apparatus after being pierced by the piercing apparatus, and thereafter, using a surface temperature of a hollow piece before being cooled by the cooling apparatus as a cooling start temperature, the hollow piece is cooled to a cooling stop temperature differing by 50° C. or more from the cooling start temperature and being equal to or above 600° C. at an average cooling speed of 1.0° C./s or more in terms of an outer surface temperature.

A method for preparing a high-performance difficult-to-deform metal precision seamless pipe includes steps of performing a heat treatment; drilling; externally grinding; internally grinding; straightening; performing four-roller warm-rolling; performing warm-drawing to reduce a diameter; performing warm-expansion to reduce a wall thickness and increase the diameter; performing precise cold-rolling; degreasing; brightening; performing surface grinding; cleaning dust; detecting flaws; testing metal structure performance; and sizing and packaging. By cycling the warm-drawing, the warm-expansion, and the precision cold-rolling, key indicators such as product dimensional accuracy, surface quality, material properties, and crystal grain size can be collaboratively controlled, to achieve higher accuracy, better performance, and more outstanding extreme specifications. Product requirements of different hard-to-deform metal materials and different product specifications can be satisfied, to flexibly prepare metal pipe products with different material characteristics, which greatly improves production efficiency and effectively reduces production costs.

It is an objective to provide a plug capable of enhancing a usage count of the plug, which is for use in a piercing machine for piercing-rolling a billet, and a regenerating method of the plug. The plug (10) is for use in a piercing machine (30) for piercing-rolling a billet (36). The plug (10) includes a body (18), a columnar portion (20), and a sprayed film (16). The body (18) has a maximum diameter at its rear end. The columnar portion (20) has the same diameter as the diameter of the rear end of the body (18), and extends from the rear end of the body (18). The sprayed film (16) is formed on a surface of the body (18) and on a surface of the columnar portion (20).
