- A500 Grade B Steel Construction
- ASTM A500 Grade B Certified
- 58,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Weldability
Hot rolled round tubing is formed from steel strip that has been rolled at high temperatures and then cold-formed into its final shape, conforming to ASTM A500 Grade B. This process yields a product with a scaled surface finish, high strength-to-weight ratio, and outstanding weldability. It is a cost-effective solution for structural applications where a precise surface finish is not a primary concern.
As a small-diameter tube, this 7/8" size is perfectly suited for building equipment frames, conveyor rollers, support legs for machinery, and industrial-style furniture. Its combination of strength and formability allows for easy fabrication into durable, lightweight structures for various mechanical and architectural uses.

For applications requiring a protective coating, the mill scale must be removed before painting, powder-coating, or galvanizing. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
How to Measure
Round tube is measured by its Outside Diameter (OD) and its Wall Thickness. Use calipers to get precise measurements for both dimensions.
Example: To order this tube, specify "Hot Rolled Steel Round Tube, 7/8" OD x 0.049" Wall".
