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!

There are 5 types of weld joints, corner, lap, tee, edge, and butt. Each one has it's own unique qualities and the best places to implement.  The butt joint is formed by placing the ends of two parts together. The two parts either lie on the same plane or are side by side. It is the most simple type of weld joint. There are a few different types of welds involved with a good butt joint.

This joint is identified by the two welded pieces being joined together in the shape of an L. It is important to remember to weld both the front and back of the L shape for struc...
