Steel Tube for ATV frame
- Thread starter acrobat
- Start date
IMHO... the AISI 41xx series of alloy steels is commonly used in tubular form for different applications requiring high strength, one thing to keep in mind is that after welding the frame will need to be stress relieved.
The bigger Diameter of tubing will give higher strength, adn if designed properly you should be able to optimize for both strength and weight by adjusting diameter and wall thickness.
