Cold Rolled Steel Square Tube

It can also be used for shafts machinery parts bolts pinions gears as well as in the creation of furniture appliances and other consumer goods.

Cold rolled steel square tube.

The rolls induce plastic deformation. It is commonly referred to as hss meaning hollow structural section. Advantages of using hot rolled steel tubes since there is less processing involved with hot rolled square steel tubing it is usually less expensive than cold rolled steel tubing. Cold rolled steel tubing this steel tubing begins as hot rolled steel but is processed even further to create a more finished surface and provide additional strength.

Two methods of rolling determine the steel tubing s overall strength as well as it s desirability for certain projects cold rolling and hot rolling. Sort by displaying 1 25 of 143 results. Used in general fabrication where strength is a requirement. Refine search start new search.

Steel stock passes through a series of rollers to be flattened out and reshaped as steel tubing. In comparison a cold rolled steel product with the same chemical composition has a yield strength of 365 mpa. Cold rolling increases the strength and hardness and decreases ductility of steel by rolling it at ambient temperature or below its recrystallization temperature. Cold rolled steel square tube is cold rolled steel that has been formed into a square tube.

Cold roll steel round tube tubing 143 products we carry cold roll steel round tubing in a513 and 1018 metric. It contains all the typical traits of steel strength some ductility and comparative ease of machining but the process of cold rolling gives is a smooth finish and better properties than those of hot rolled steel. In addition to improvement of mechanical properties the cold rolling produces steel plate sheet of the desired physical dimensions. 1018 steel is the most common type of steel used when making cold rolled steel.

We stand to remain the premium steel supplier in south africa and ensure that we remain the top steel merchant in south africa. As an example a hot rolled steel product may have a yield strength of 235 mpa. Hot rolled steel is also more malleable making it easier to bend and form the tubes into your desired shape. Cold rolled steel has an improved surface finish and tighter tolerances compared to hot rolled steel.

Steel pipe square tubing round tubing rectangular tubing rebar round bar square bar tube pipe hot rolled coil cold rolled coil galvanised coil cold formed section lipped channels. It is commonly used for parts requiring cold forming such as crimping swaging or bending. Our available stock sizes. Thus the yield strength of cold rolled steel is higher than that of hot rolled steel.

The term cold rolling describes the process quite well.
