ABSTRACT:
A method of reducing tubular metal products includes the steps of selecting a tube to be reduced having the specified initial wall thickness necessary to produce the desired finished wall thickness, and reducing the tube by passing it through a succession of roll stands which reduce the end portions of the tube without applying tension between roll stands and which reduce the portion of the tube intermediate the end portions with application of tension. The method produces reduced tubular products with substantially uniform wall thickness throughout eliminating the necessity of cropping end portions which have out-of-specification wall thickness.
