    Multipurpose Low-Carbon Steel Rectangular Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Steel. Multipurpose Low-Carbon Steel Rectangular Tubes.
    Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. These tubes are often fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength, such as frames, supports, and raceways. To increase their wear resistance, you can surface harden them with heat treating.
