Ipayipi lensimbi le-ERW lenziwa ngokumelana nemvamisa ephansi noma imvamisa ephezulu. Lingamapayipi ayindilinga ahlanganiswe ngamashidi ensimbi anemithungo emide. Lisetshenziselwa ukuthutha izinto eziwuketshezi njengowoyela negesi yemvelo, futhi lingahlangabezana nezidingo ezahlukahlukene zomfutho ophezulu nophansi. Njengamanje lithatha indawo ebalulekile emkhakheni wamapayipi okuthutha emhlabeni.
Lapho kushiselwa amapayipi e-ERW, ukushisa kukhiqizwa lapho ugesi ugeleza ezindaweni zokuthintana zendawo eshisiwe. Ushisa zombili iziphetho zensimbi kuze kube yilapho unqenqema olulodwa lungakha khona ijoyinti. Kulesi simo, ngaphansi kwengcindezi ehlangene, iziphetho zepayipi elingenalutho ziyancibilika futhi zicindezelwe.
Ngokuvamile amapayipi e-ERW anobubanzi obuphezulu bangaphandle obungamasentimitha angu-609 (24 mm), osayizi abakhulu benziwa ku-SAW.
Kunezipayipi eziningi ezingenziwa kusetshenziswa indlela ye-ERW. Ngezansi sibala izindinganiso ezivame kakhulu ekufakweni kwamapayipi.

Ukusetshenziswa kanye nokusetshenziswa kwepayipi lensimbi le-ERW: Ipayipi lensimbi le-ERW lisetshenziselwa ukuthutha igesi nezinto eziwuketshezi ezifana namafutha negesi, futhi lingahlangabezana nezidingo zomfutho ophansi nophezulu. Eminyakeni yamuva nje, ngokuthuthukiswa kobuchwepheshe be-ERW, amapayipi ensimbi e-ERW amaningi asetshenziswa emikhakheni kawoyela negesi, embonini yezimoto nakwezinye izinkambu.
