Manufactured using our unique “Daiwa Z Process,” a continuous manufacturing process of tube manufacturing and hot dip galvanizing. When compared with other manufacturing methods, this method offers extremely high corrosion resistance and a beautiful appearance, which allows the tube to be used for a wider range of applications.

Product details

Light, strong, environment-friendly scaffolding tubes Super Light 700 (SL700)

Lightweight scaffolding tubes

Light, Strong and more efficient

Super Light 700 (SL700) is a lightweight scaffolding tube that perfectly balances the conflicting elements of “light” and “strong” steel tubes. The wall thickness of the steel tube is only 1.8mm. We have succeeded in reducing the weight by 25% and increasing the tensile strength by 40% compared with conventional products. The lightness of the product helps in reducing the workload at the site where the steel tubes are used and decreases the cost of transportation.

Leading position in lightweight scaffold tubes

Super Light 700 (SL700) is being sold since 1996. We take pride in the fact that we have sold 300,000 tons or 60 million units.

Cleared the safety standards of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare

Super Light 700 (SL700) is a scaffolding tube jointly developed with Nippon Steel Corporation. It has been subjected to a 6-row 3-column full-scale load test conducted at the test site for Scaffolding and Construction Equipment Association of Japan, has been recognized by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare as being safe through various strength tests, and has even led to a revision of Article 572 of the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare on March 5, 1996.

Resistant to natural disasters and flexible in design

STX is a high tensile strength steel tube with twice the strength of conventional materials. Ideal for greenhouses, resistant to natural disasters such as typhoons and snowfalls.

The greenhouse lasts longer due to rust-resistance.

With our unique all-round hot-dip galvanizing, sprayed parts are not prone to rusting. In addition, the unique high corrosion resistant top coat prevents rusting.

“Light,” “Strong,” “Economical”

[Light]

Due to significant strength, the weight can be reduced by reducing the tube size and thickness of the component.

[Strong]

Its high strength allows for increased component strength.

[Economical]

Reduces transport cost due to reduced tube weight and size. The reduction in the surface area of tubes also brings down the painting cost.

Zinc galvanizing and Daiwa Z Process

Perfect Post Zinc (PPZ) and Post Zinc (PZ) steel tubes are hot dip galvanized steel tubes manufactured by our unique line ~equipment using our “Daiwa~ which continuously performs tube manufacturing and hot dip galvanizing. “Daiwa Z Process” can drastically reduce the thickness of the alloy layer, which impairs corrosion resistance, by shortening the time previously required for immersion in the galvanizing bath from several minutes to several seconds.

Silver-white glow

Pure zinc with 99.995% purity is used for galvanizing, and a top coat (special rustproof transparent resin) is applied after galvanizing. This will ensure that the silver-white glow of Post Zinc is preserved indefinitely.

Excellent workability

The alloy layer of the galvanizing is much thinner than that of the batch hot-dip galvanizing, preventing the plating from cracking or peeling due to bending. High adhesion is achieved by a special high temperature baking paint developed by Daiwa Steel Tube Industries. The paint does not peel off even under severe bending, resulting in excellent workability.

Specially designed for winding, 3 times more corrosion resistance than conventional products Super Color

Super Color

Polyester coating inside and outside

It has excellent corrosion and weather resistance and can withstand the harsh environment of high temperature and humidity.

Using Z18 equivalent welded galvanized steelsheet

Thickly galvanized on both inside and outside surface, these steel tubes are highly resistant to corrosion and effective in preventing rust.

Rigid Steel Conduits

Rigid steel conduits

All of the coils we use to manufacture steel tubes are made by Nippon Steel Corporation. We achieve the high quality required for conduits by using the most advanced steel material and the reliable technology we have cultivated through tube manufacturing and hot-dip galvanizing over many years.

Thick steel conduits

Thick steel tubes are threaded at both ends, conforming to the JIS C8305-2019 Standard. Hot-dip galvanizing is applied on inside and outside surfaces to prevent corrosion.. (Zinc adhesion: 300 g/m2 or more)

Thin steel conduit

Thin tubes are threaded at both ends, conforming to the JIS C8305-2019 < Steel Conduit > Standard. Hot-dip galvanizing is applied to external surfaces, and rust-proof paint is applied to internal surfaces. The outer surface is hot-dip galvanized over the entire circumference, including the electric welded parts of the tube, similar to thick steel conduits.

Threadless conduit

Threadless conduit, conforming to the JIS C8305-2019 < Steel Conduit > Standard. Hot-dip galvanizing is applied to external surfaces and rust-proof paint is applied to internal surfaces, similar to thin steel conduits. Thin and lightweight tube with excellent workability.
