1020 DOM Tubing Drawn Over Mandrel (DOM) Steel Round Tube For Mechanical
1020 DOM tubing is a cold-drawn, seamless steel tube produced by drawing a hot-finished tube over a mandrel, resulting in precise dimensions, smooth surface finish, and enhanced mechanical properties. Commonly manufactured from low-carbon grades such as AISI 1020, it offers excellent machinability, weldability, and uniform wall thickness, making it ideal for demanding mechanical applications. Key competing grades include AISI 1008, 1018, 1020, 1030, and 1045, each with distinct chemical and mechanical characteristics. DOM tubing typically conforms to standards such as ASTM A519/A513 (USA), EN 10305-1 (EU), GOST 8734-75 (Russia), JIS G3445 (Japan), and GB/T 4161 (China), and is widely used in automotive shafts, hydraulic cylinders, furniture components, and agricultural equipment.
Material
“Drawn Over Mandrel” (DOM) tubing is manufactured by cold drawing a seamless tube over a tight-fitting mandrel, which refines inner and outer diameters, improves surface finish, and enhances mechanical properties through work hardening . The base material is low-carbon steel, commonly AISI 1020, known for its ductility, weldability, and consistent grain structure .
