Precision tubes

Whether you're looking for weight savings, corrosion resistance, narrow tolerances or low processing costs, SSAB provides a wide range of precision steel tubes to fit your needs. We promise you the market's most versatile precision tubes to make your products exceed your customer’s expectations.

The strength of our precision tubing ranges from E190 up to DP980. This range enables you to find the best steel grade and type for your purposes. You can select extremely formable, high-strength formable or an ultra-high-strength option for your application. And if you need tight tolerances and high surface quality in combination with extreme bendability, our SSAB Form Tube Plus is your choice. All our steels are modern, environmentally friendly and developed especially for tubing.

Our precision tubing provides the most effective, environmental and economical way of protecting steel against corrosion. You can select from various coating options for many different conditions and processes. The required coating life in different conditions can be achieved by selecting the proper zinc-coating thickness from our range 100–600 g/m2. In special applications requiring superior paint adhesion and good weldability with excellent corrosion resistance, our galvannealed tubing makes the best choice.

New SSAB Form Tube Plus –family

SSAB Form Tube Plus is a completely new family of precision steel tubes that provides a unique combination of bendability, dimensional accuracy, and superior surface quality suitable for high gloss painting and chrome plating. The tubes are protected with thin plates to help preventing transportation and handling damage thus providing scratch free surface for the user.

The biggest benefit of the SSAB Form Tube Plus tubes comes in applications where demands for surface quality are very high and tight fittings are needed, like in furniture manufacturing. Also automated manufacturing and bending operations benefit when choosing SSAB Form Tube Plus.

Docol tubes for automotive

Docol Tubes

Docol Tubes make the ideal choice for safety components and structural parts of a car body and chassis. But they've also got much to offer to anyone looking for high-end solutions. Docol Tubes uniquely combine high strength and different surface qualities with endless shape varieties. SSAB´s Docol Tubes offer the market´s greatest strength range. The tensile strength range starts from 600 MPa and goes up to an extraordinary 1000 MPa without any post-heat treatments. With coating options including zinc, galfan and galvannealed, corrosion resistance and superior paint adhesion can be combined for the first time in high-strength precision tubing.

Docol Tubes are made in compliance with standard EN 10305 (parts 3 and 5) with the more demanding elongation values and chemical analyses. To meet the highest customer expectations, we manufacture the tubes with narrow tolerances.

SSAB Form Tubes

SSAB Form Tubes uniquely combine strength, formability, narrow tolerances and surface quality and are supplied in endless varieties and material options for different applications.

The yield strength range of SSAB Form Tubes ranges from 190 MPa to 420 MPa. Tubes are made in compliance with standard EN 10305 (parts 3 and 5) and the more demanding elongation (CR2+) values and chemical analyses. Our outstanding elongation properties help you lower manufacturing costs and reach new limits in forming processes. In addition, our tuned chemical composition significantly improves weldability and cutting.
