Key information:
We also carry a wide range of mild steel sheet metal, angle iron and flat bar.
Mild steel is a quality strong metal. However it is not rust proof and may do so over time. Please use galvanised or stainless steel if you need resistance to rust. If this metal tube does show signs of rust then simply remove this with WD40 or fine sanding.
The grade of plain steel that we have available has mechanical properties that provide excellent machinability, formability and weldability.
Mild steel can be welded and it’s also suitable for painting. Mild steel is a magnetic grade of metal. Magnets will stick to this sheet but it is not itself a magnet.
Mild steel round tubes boast a combination of strength, workability and affordability, making them a favored choice in a variety of applications. Typical uses include:
Construction: They are commonly used as structural elements in buildings, bridges and other infrastructure projects for framing, supports and scaffolding.
Automotive: Employed in various vehicle components, mild steel tubes form part of vehicle frames, roll cages, exhaust systems and other structural elements in cars, trucks and motorcycles.
Furniture: Due to their strength and ease of fabrication, they are a popular material for manufacturing chairs, tables, bed frames and other household and office furniture.
Machinery: Mild steel round tubes feature in the design and construction of various machines, tools and equipment, where durability and resilience are paramount.
Fencing and Railings: Their robustness makes them ideal for creating durable fences, railings, balustrades and gates for both residential and commercial properties.
Agriculture: They find utility in agricultural equipment such as greenhouses, tractors and machinery frames.
Transportation: Mild steel tubes are integrated into the structural frameworks and body components of buses, trains and other modes of transportation.

The versatility of mild steel round tubes means they can be tailored, treated and transformed to suit a myriad of applications across different industries.
Yes, you can bend a mild steel round tube. Due to its inherent ductility and malleability, mild steel is one of the preferred materials when bending is required. The ease and degree of bendability will, however, depend on several factors including the tube’s wall thickness, its diameter and the bending method or tools being used. It’s important to note that while bending, care must be taken to prevent any unwanted deformation or kinking, especially in tubes with thinner walls. For precise and controlled bending, especially in industrial applications, specialised tube bending machines are often employed to ensure consistency and accuracy.
Yes, it is relatively easy to cut mild steel round tubes. Mild steel, owing to its lower carbon content, offers a good balance between strength and ductility, making it easier to cut compared to harder steels. Common tools used for cutting include hacksaws for manual cuts, angle grinders with a metal cutting disc and tube cutters for cleaner, more precise cuts. For larger-scale or industrial applications, more advanced methods such as laser cutting, plasma cutting or cold sawing might be employed. Regardless of the method used, it’s essential to ensure safety precautions are observed, including wearing appropriate protective equipment and ensuring a secure setup.
