What is Structural Tubing?
Structural tubing is tubing generally used for structural or support purposes. Structural tubing is produced in a process that uses flat sheets or strips passing through a series of progressive dies that form the sheet into a square or rectangle. A longitudinal seam is created by the two edges becoming mechanically joined. In the final step, the joined seam is heated by a high-frequency electrical current to form a bond without filler metal. There are several different types of manufacturing structural tubing:
- ERW (Electric Resistance Welded)
- DOM (Drawn over a Mandrel)
- Spiral Weld
Welds on structural tubing are tested to ensure that the product can meet the specifications required by the corresponding governing agency. Contact Arbor Metals TM for your structural steel tubing needs.
