14 x 1mm mild steel round metal tubing is used in many structural and engineering applications. The size refers to the outside diameter and then the thickness of the wall.
ERW means Electric Resistance Welded. ERW round tube is made when steel strip is welded to form a tube shape. The tube is continuously seam welded which means that there is a neat weld running along the inside of the tube.
Mild steel round tube is widely used in a variety of applications and also comes in both square and rectangular options.

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.
Protecting mild steel tubing from corrosion can be achieved through various methods. Painting or powder coating creates a protective layer that shields steel from moisture, while galvanising involves coating the steel with a layer of zinc for excellent corrosion resistance. Anti-corrosion sprays or oils can be applied to form a thin barrier, and electroplating can deposit a layer of a more corrosion-resistant metal onto the steel. Cathodic protection and phosphate coating provide additional options for controlling corrosion, and a technique called bluing offers some protection against rust. Storing the steel tubing in a controlled environment and performing regular maintenance to prevent moisture accumulation can also help. In some cases, using corrosion-resistant alloys like stainless steel or weathering steel (Corten) may be a preferable solution. Often, the best protection results from combining several of these methods, such as painting galvanised steel or applying paint over phosphate-coated steel.
Yes, mild steel round tubing can be recycled. Mild steel, like other types of steel, is 100% recyclable. It can be melted down and reprocessed to produce new steel products without any degradation in quality. Recycling steel requires significantly less energy compared to producing steel from raw materials. This makes the recycling of steel not only environmentally beneficial but also economically advantageous. Most scrap metal yards accept mild steel tubing, along with other steel products, for recycling. Before recycling, it’s essential to ensure the tubing is free from any non-metallic materials or contaminants.
Mild steel tubing can be used for certain high-pressure applications, but its suitability largely depends on the specific requirements of the project and the design of the tubing. Generally, mild steel possesses a good combination of strength and ductility, but for very high-pressure applications, one might consider other types of steel or materials designed specifically for such conditions.
Seamless tubes, which lack the welded seam of standard mild steel tubing, are often chosen for high-pressure applications because they have uniform strength around their circumference. Additionally, tubes designed for high-pressure applications typically have thicker walls to handle the increased internal pressure.
If considering mild steel tubing for high-pressure applications, it’s essential to verify the tubing’s specifications, including its maximum allowable working pressure, and to ensure they meet the necessary safety and operational requirements for the intended use. Consulting with an engineer or tubing manufacturer can provide more precise guidance on material and design selection.
