Elliptical tubing is used for a wide range of applications, such as the manufacturing of furniture and handrails. The shape is a useful alternative to both round and angular tubes because it will deliver a fantastic combination of strength and aesthetic appeal. They are often used in situations where people will come into contact with the tubes, as the curved edges are better in terms of safety and ergonomics than angled ones.

Manufacturing square tubing
Steel ERW tubes are available in a range of round and angular shapes including circular, oval, square and rectangular. Whatever the shape, the manufacturer will always start off with a sheet of the material, generally mild steel. This is trimmed to the right width and to ensure the edges are prepared for welding. It is then cold formed using a machine with contoured rollers. Once the two edges are brought together, they can be welded to complete the tube. Continue reading “Manufacturing square tubing”

The benefits of zinc plated steel tubes
ERW steel tubes can be finished in a number of ways to give the substrate material more protection against corrosion, damage and wear. One option is zinc plating. The technique has been used for many years because it is cost effective and can give steel a highly protective and corrosion-resistant coating. The practice is particularly widely used on components for the automotive sector. Continue reading “The benefits of zinc plated steel tubes”
