Dura-Bar Trepanning

Many applications for Dura-Bar end up having a hole machined through the center. Often this is one of the longer machining steps. To help speed up the machining process, Dura-Bar offers trepanned tubes from a variety of round bar stock sizes to meet a wide range of customer tubing applications.

The Dura-Bar trepanning process and modern equipment assures customers of the most precise and accurate trepanned products to meet exact specifications. All tubes are left with sufficient stock for clean-up in most applications.

Many trepanned sizes are available from stock, and additional sizes can be custom ordered.

Example

all thickness minimums are based on actual O.D. and I.D. A customer requiring a 3.00" O.D. x 2.00" I.D. tube will receive a tube which is 3.110" O.D. x 1.750" I.D.
