What is Cold Rolled Steel Tubing?
Cold rolled steel is low-carbon steel rolled and finished at room temperature, below its recrystallization point. This permits better control over finished product shape, dimensions, and appearance. Characteristics are:
- Increased Strength
- Tighter Tolerances
- Better Concentricity
- Consistent Uniformity
- Improved Surface Finish
The surface of cold rolled steel tubing is smooth and has fewer imperfections than hot rolled steel. This boosts aesthetic appeal and performance.
Applications for Cold Rolled Steel Tubing
With elevated surface characteristics and dimensional accuracy, cold rolled steel is suitable for technically precise applications or those where aesthetics are essential. Examples include:
