Velospec PRO (Cold Drawn, Air-Hardening Steels)

Velospec™ PRO (Cold Drawn, Air-Hardening Steels)

UTS: ~950 MPa

Elongation: 12-17%

Velospec high-strength steels are designed for top-end performance and lightweight frame designs. This seamless tubing undergoes DOM processing for improved tube tolerance and structural integrity. With 'air-hardening' characteristics derived from its chemistry, this alloy has the ability to further harden and strengthen TIG-welded zones during cool down.

Velospec is offered in two versions: Elite and Pro. For additional strength, especially in thin-wall profiles, the Elite tubes undergo heat treatment that raises tensile strengths to ~1150 MPa, countering material fatigue and external impacts. Moderately lower in tensile strength but outstanding in toughness, the cold-drawn, non-heat-treated Pro tubes have tensile strengths of up to ~950 MPa. Velospec’s U.S.-made raw material is tested to AMS 2301 aircraft quality standards.
