DOM Tubing
DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) tubing is a high-quality, precision steel tube that is widely used in various industrial applications due to its superior strength, dimensional accuracy, and smooth internal finish. The DOM process involves taking a cold-formed, welded steel tube and drawing it over a mandrel, which eliminates the weld seam and improves mechanical properties. This process enhances the tube’s structural integrity, making it ideal for demanding applications requiring high precision and consistency.
DOM tubing is commonly used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, hydraulics, and heavy machinery. It is valued for its high tensile strength, uniform wall thickness, and excellent surface finish, which allows for better performance in high-stress environments. The tubing is available in various sizes and grades, with the most common materials being carbon steel and alloy steel.
Applications of DOM tubing include hydraulic cylinders, drive shafts, shock absorbers, bearings, and other mechanical components where strength and reliability are crucial. Its superior machinability and weldability also make it a preferred choice for engineers looking for precision and performance.
