Drawn Over Mandrel Tubing (DOM) Supplier
Drawn Over Mandrel (DOM) Round Mechanical Tubing is a cold drawn 1020/1026 electric resistance welded tube with all the flash removed prior to cold drawing. In comparison to another tubing, DOM round steel tubing is produced to more exact OD and ID tolerances and has the highest weld strength possible. Industrial Tube and Steel Corporation has been a Drawn Over Mandrel (DOM) Mechanical Tubing supplier for over 65 years.

DOM Steel Tubing Manufacturing Process
The manufacturing process for DOM round steel tubing begins with coils of steel, which are slit to the proper width for the desired tube size. The strip is cold formed and passed through an electric resistance welder which joins the edges together, under pressure, to complete the tubular shape. After testing the weld’s integrity, the tubing is cut to length for further processing. The cold-drawing process creates a uniform, precision product with substantially improved tolerances, surface finish and tensile strength, increased hardness, and good machinability. In this process, the tube is cleaned and annealed, and one end of each length is squeezed to a point so it can be gripped by the drawing mechanism. The tube is then drawn through one or more dies and over mandrels. This reduces the diameter of the tube and thins its walls to the required dimensions in a controlled fashion to provide the qualities desired in the finished product. Metallurgically, drawing improves the tube’s concentricity, tensile strength, hardness, and machinability. Close dimensional accuracy is achieved through tight control of both outside and inside diameters.
Benefits of Drawn Over Mandrel Tubing
Cost-Effectiveness
- Close tolerances allow DOM to be used for mechanical parts with minimal or no downstream processing.
Strength
- Cold-drawing gives DOM tuibng high yield and tensile strength. Made with high-quality steel, DOM tubing can withstand heavy loads, bending, and torsional forces without deforming or breaking.
Uniformity and Precision
- DOM tubing has uniform wall thickness and concentricity, as well as uniform mechanical properties. DOM tubing also has close OD and ID tolerances. Uniform grain structure and controlled hardness are other properties, and tight dimensional tolerances ensures a high level of precision and accuracy.
Appearance
- Smooth and Clean OD and ID surfaces.
Close Tolerances
- DOM offers exceptionally close tolerances for OD, ID and wall thickness dimensions.
Surface Quality
- OD and ID surfaces of DOM are free of oxide and scale and have a smooth, dense finish with no trace of the weld.
Machinability
- DOM is easily machined, with only a nominal stock allowance for clean-up. It has excellent machining characteristics.
Wide Range of Sizes
- DOM can be manufactured to an almost infinite range of OD and wall thickness dimensions by varying the size of the dies and mandrels used.
Cost-Effectiveness
- With the precision and quality of DOM tubing, costs may be reduced in terms of material waste, labor, and potential rework.
