When choosing a fabricator to produce your parts, there are many things to consider. Since your chosen fabricator will become part of your business' supply chain, it is important to choose one that will offer the best price, most capabilities, and quickest turnaround time to ensure that your overhead stays low. At Ohio Galvanized Tube, we offer a wide array of machinery offering different cuts, enabling us to keep costs low and fabricate a variety of options. Read on to learn more about just some of our options.

Plasma Machine

Ready to heat things up? The plasma cutter (pictured above) is ready to tackle the toughest steel tube cutting jobs. This machine is the newest member of our family and can cut steel into a variety of shapes. It can even cut steel tubing up to .75" thick! A plasma machine uses gas and electric current to heat material into 4th stage matter, making easier cuts of larger pieces.

Haven Cutter

Now that you've learned about larger cuts, how about bringing it down a notch? Our Haven can make precise, surgeon-like cuts as small as half an inch! However, the action doesn't end there. This machine comes with a built in burring system to offer the smoothest, finest steel tubes. This two-in-one machine helps save money, time, and space!

Cold Saw Cutting

Now that you've seen the largest and smallest, how about something for those middle of the road type jobs. This saw can cut steel tubing in a range of .5" to 4.5." Even more impressive, this machine uses advanced heat transferring technology to allow for fine, crisp edges after cutting. Heat from the cutting process is transferred away from the circular center of the saw and to the tips of the blade, allowing for clean, quick work.

While these are just a few of Ohio Galvanized Tube's capabilities, we offer our loyal clients a lot more to bring them the highest-quality cuts at a highly competitive price. Contact us, today, to learn more!

Common Applications for Stainless Steel Tubing

     Stainless steel has been one of the most common and versatile materials in the world since it came into production over 100 years ago. It has become an indispensable product for a variety of industries . Due to it's broad range of sizes and custom-made designs, it is an integral piece in many specific applications.      Certain industries use certain stainless tubing for different sectors. Many manufacturers, mills and manufacturing lines use parts of stainless steel for their machinery and goods they make. Same goes for the automotive industry where it is used for high quality mufflers. Gas and heat lines allow stainless steel tube lines to withstand extreme pressures being forced through them. It is also 100% recyclable and easy to sterilize.      Unlike ordinary steel, stainless steel isn't prone to corrosion, rusting or staining with exposure to water. It is not totally stain proof however. In areas with low oxyge...

Measuring Diameter This might not seem like a big difference, but it actually is. Steel tube is measured from outside edge to outside edge, while pipe is measured only for the internal opening. This is because steel tube has its strength determined by the thickness of its walls, and steel pipe's usefulness is determined by the volume it can hold. It is common to find a 12-inch pipe, but it would be extremely rare to find a 12-inch tube. Tubes are used in applications that require a smaller size. 2. Structure Steel tube does not have to be cylindrical. It can be square or some other shape. Pipe, on the other hand, is always round. Tube can have a seam while pipe is a uniform piece. Pipe te...
