ASTM A513 Tubing is crafted from carbon steel through electric-resistance welding (ERW) techniques and comes in both hot-rolled and cold-rolled varieties. Typically, its chemical makeup features carbon levels up to 0.30%, manganese up to 1.35%, and keeps phosphorus and sulfur each below 0.05%. Renowned for its superb surface finish and precise dimensions, this tubing boasts tensile strength between 415 and 560 MPa and yield strength ranging from 290 to 415 MPa. These impressive mechanical properties, combined with good ductility and hardness, make it a great fit for a variety of forming and fabrication tasks in both mechanical and structural applications.
ASTM A513 tubing is made out of carbon steel and has a controlled chemical makeup containing elements such as carbon, manganese, phosphorus, and sulfur. The tubing is electric-resistance welded and cold-finished, resulting in a smooth surface finish and precise dimension accuracy. It is renowned for its excellent mechanical properties including high tensile strength, weldability, and reliable performance under stress. The machinability and uniform strength of the tubing make it suitable for structural and mechanical use where reliability matters.
