ERW tubes can be used for all kinds of applications

Cold rolled steel offers many advantages when it comes to creating tubes. It is simple to customise, cheap to manufacture and produces minimal waste. The cold rolled steel manufacturing technique involves using strip steel and a series of rollers to form the material into a tube. Once this is done the edges are welded together, creating a “mother tube”. This can then be finished in a number of ways, including adapting the shape and dimensions if required.

Combining the best in design and manufacturing

ERW tubes offer great advantages, as they can be used in a varied selection of environments. Electric resistance welding refers to the industrial process of connecting two surfaces with the heat produced by the electrical resistance of the materials and the pressure used during the welding process. As a leading supplier of a wide range of ERW tubes, our clients can rely on us to manufacture and deliver products at the right time and the right price.

The quality speaks for itself

Electric resistance welded (ERW) tubes are cold formed and can be made in huge lengths with uniform diameters and wall thicknesses along the entire length. To make the tube, a plate of steel is pulled through rollers to force the material into a cylinder. When the edges of the steel meet, an electrical charge is used to heat them and create a weld, forming the tube. This weld is then usually ground down to leave a smooth finish although some providers may leave it to the consumer to do this. Continue reading “The quality speaks for itself”
