Soon there are new tubes in production at SSAB tube mill. And that means we can offer a larger selection of high strength tube types shortly.
Docol Tubes R10 will shortly start to be produced and dimensions are produced by demand. When we know which dimensions will be manufactured and the prices, we will put it up under the headline tubes here at our website.
These tubes are a bit stronger than Docol Tubes R8. Do NOT use this tubes where the rules require Docol Tube R8, as these tubes have not been tested for those applications in motorsports. But it is just ok to use where regulations do not refer to any special material. If you might want to go down in size and weight, but retain strength this is a good option. These tubes have the same weight/mass as Mild steel, Chrome moly and Docol Tube R8. It´s how you dimension with stronger tubes that allows you to earn weight.
Another kind of tubes we will offer is Hardox Tube 500.
Hardox is a wear-resistant steel, and these tubes are at their best in tough environments, such as concrete industry for example.
