100mm x 50mm steel tube

Made from stainless steel, carbon steel, or aluminum, steel tubes are cylindrical and hollow pipes designed to pass on fluids and provide stability to structures. Depending on their shape and size, these tubes can really vary; for instance, a small diameter, thin-walled steel tube could be in the form of 100mm x 50mm.

Thin-walled tubes of small diameter steel are a popular choice for a range of purposes. For instance, they are conveniently manoeuvred through confined areas in the installation of hydraulic or pneumatic lines. Moreover, these tubes help to avoid build up thanks to their inwardly smooth surfaces, therefore ideal for use as fuel conduits. Besides these more industrial utilizations; bikes and pieces of furniture incorporate them too.

Starting with a coil of steel that is sliced to the correct length, the process of forming slender, thick-walled steel tubes progresses by cleaning and smoothing the ends of the strip. Rolling the strip into a cylindrical shape is the next step, followed by welding it entirely and removing any burrs that may have been created. The tube is then quality-checked, trimmed to size, and is ready for its intended use.

Small diameter, thin-walled steel tubes boast a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio, are highly flexible, and possess superior resistance to corrosion. What’s more, these tubes are conveniently simple to attach with welding or other methods, making them the perfect choice for applications requiring an uninterrupted connection.

Compared to other materials, steel may be more costly when it comes to creating tubes. The fabrication of steel tubes is intricate and time-consuming, adding to their expense. Not only does this make them less favorable financially, but they are also less useful for jobs that involve high temperatures, as the heat can cause a decrease in structural integrity.
