JIS G3445 Carbon Steel Tubes

Seamless And Welded Tubes For Automotive And Mechanical Applications

Jis g3445 carbon steel tubes for machine structural purposes, offering high strength and formability, ideal for automotive, machinery, and furniture. available in grades stkm11a to stkm20a, these seamless and welded tubes excel in precision engineering.

JIS G3445 Carbon Steel Tubes are engineered for machine structural purposes, delivering exceptional strength, formability, and precision. These tubes are widely used in automotive steel tubes and precision mechanical tubes, conforming to the Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS). They are ideal for machinery, automobiles, bicycles, furniture, appliances, and other mechanical components. Available in grades ranging from STKM11A to STKM20A, they offer excellent corrosion resistance and durability.

These tubes are manufactured using seamless, electric resistance welding (ERW), or butt welding processes, with outer diameters from 19.05 mm to 260 mm and wall thicknesses from 2 mm to 26 mm. Lengths are available in single random, double random, or customized options up to 10 meters. They can be hot-rolled, cold-drawn, or cold-finished, with heat treatments like normalizing, annealing, or stress relieving to enhance mechanical properties. The low carbon content (e.g., 0.12% max for STKM11A) ensures excellent formability for bending, flaring, and shaping.

With a controlled chemical composition (carbon, silicon, manganese, phosphorus, and sulfur), these tubes offer high weldability and moderate corrosion resistance. For example, STKM13C, with up to 0.25% carbon, provides a tensile strength of 510 MPa minimum, compared to 290 MPa for STKM11A. Rigorous testing—tensile, flattening, bending, and nondestructive (ultrasonic or eddy current)—ensures compliance with JIS G3445 standards. Surface finishes include black painted, varnished, or galvanized options, with beveled or straight ends.

Applications include automotive manufacturing (e.g., drive shafts, steering columns), machinery (e.g., hydraulic cylinders), and furniture (e.g., chair frames). Their precision and resistance to pipeline wear make them suitable for dynamic systems. Compared to JIS G3444 or ASTM A519, JIS G3445 excels in formability and tolerances, making it a top choice for precision engineering.

These tubes tackle mechanical stress, deformation, and corrosion challenges, offering a cost-effective, robust solution for industries needing reliable machine structural parts that ensure performance, safety, and longevity.
