1.750″ od x .065″wall CREW Steel Round Tube
A “CREW tube” stands for “Cold Rolled Electric Welded” tube, which is a type of steel tubing manufactured by taking a cold-rolled steel strip, forming it into a tube shape, and then welding the seam together using electric resistance welding (ERW) at room temperature; this process results in a tube with tighter tolerances and a better surface finish compared to hot-rolled welded tubing (HREW).
Key points about CREW tubes:
Manufacturing process
Cold rolled steel strip is passed through rollers to form a tube, then the seam is welded using electric resistance welding.
Benefits
Improved surface finish, tighter dimensional tolerances, and higher strength compared to hot-rolled welded tubes.
Mechanical uses
Structural uses
Industrial uses
Steel tubing is used in industrial applications to transport water, gasses, and liquid wastes
Steel tubing is a common component of industrial machines, used in conveyor belts, hydraulic lifts, and mills
