steam pipe
Boiler's hot tube
A steam pipe is a pipe that carries steam, typically from a boiler to radiators or industrial equipment.
Steam pipes are common in older buildings with steam heating systems and in factories where steam powers machinery or processes.
The steam pipe clanked and hissed as the heat came on.
