Hot Rolled Steel Rectangle Tube

Hot Rolled Steel Rectangle Tube Benefits

Steel rectangle tubes are box-shaped, allowing for increased durability and sturdiness, ideal for structural applications, general fabrications, manufacturing, and repairs. Easy to cut, weld, form, and machine, hot rolled square tubing offers several beneficial features:

• Optimal strength-to-weight ratio
• Increased solidity
• Enhanced stability
• High torsional and uniform strength
• Simplified fabrication
• Cost-conscious
• Recyclable

What are the Differences Between Cold Rolled & Hot Rolled Steel Rectangle Tubes?

Different fabrication methods yield particular characteristics for cold-rolled and hot-rolled rectangle steel tubes. Cold rolling is meant to increase the hardness and strength by producing certain defects in the metal’s crystal structure, and it can also decrease plate and sheet metal thickness during the manufacturing stage.
Hot rolling is performed at temperatures above 1,700°F, allowing the steel to be manipulated and formed into more extensive solutions. Steel rectangle tubes using hot-rolling processes are less expensive than cold-rolled options and are processed without delays in manufacturing.
