J356 TUBE

Corten Steel Tube is a leading supplier of J356 Tube, offering high-quality electric resistance welded (ERW), flash-controlled, normalized, single-wall, low-carbon steel pressure tubing.  SAE J356 tubing is designed for use in pressure lines and various applications that require tubing suitable for bending, double flaring, beading, forming, and brazing. Due to the potential leak path caused by the interior weld bead, it is not recommended for single flare applications unless explicitly agreed upon by the producer and purchaser.

SAE J356 Type-A tubing refers to small-diameter, light-wall tubing (commonly 5/8″ OD x 18 Ga or smaller) that undergoes in-line annealing, unlike standard SAE J356 tubing, where normalizing is performed as a separate operation.  Both tubing types have identical mechanical properties and performance standards,  but Type-A tubing features a broader chemical composition range for carbon and manganese. Typically produced in coil form, Type-A tubing can also be cut and straightened using secondary processes, providing flexibility for various industrial needs.

The manufacturing process involves shaping a single strip of steel into a tubular form through electric resistance welding. Interior weld flash is controlled or removed during or after welding to ensure a smooth finish. On-line annealing enhances ductility and ensures a uniform grain structure. While SAE J356 tubing undergoes a secondary heat treatment in straight lengths, SAE J356 Type-A tubing is heat-treated in-line during production to relieve stress, making it efficient and reliable.

J356 Tube is ideal for demanding applications, meeting performance standards for bending, beading, double flaring, and brazing. Nominal reference working pressures for these tubes are specified in ISO 10763 for metric tubing and SAE J1065 for inch tubing. Whether in straight lengths or coiled form, We deliver strong solutions for diverse industrial applications, ensuring reliability and performance with every product.
