Delivery Conditions

The tubes are not intended to undergo any heat treatment after welding and sizing as that may alter the mechanical properties of the material (+CR2 delivery condition according to EN 10305-3 and -5).

The tubes are oiled with anti-corrosive oil (S4 condition according to EN 10305-3 and -5).

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Further Fabrication

Pre-heating of the tubes before bending and welding may lower the strength of the material. Docol Tube 780 is not suitable for hot dip galvanizing. Outside the welded area the surface roughness (Ra) is typically 0.25-0.75 μm.

Bending

The bendability of Docol Tube 780 steels is good and the recommended minimum bending radius is 2.5 x tube diameter. The optimal radial gap between mandrel and inside wall of the tube should be in the range of 0.10 to 0.15 mm.

Welding

Docol Tube 780 tubes have very low content of alloying elements in relation to the high strength of the steels and the weldability of Docol Tube 780 is very good. Recommendations in accordance to Eurocode 3 apply for welding. For information and recommendations for welding Docol Tube 780, see welding brochure for SSAB Docol products and Steelfacts at www.ssab.com.

For information concerning fabrication, see SSAB´s brochures on www.ssab.com or consult Tech Support.

Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when bending, welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the products.
