Black 1-1/4" Round Steel Tube .049" Wall Cut to Size

This black 1-1/4" outside diameter round steel tube with a .049" wall is a pre-finished, ready-to-use steel tube designed for applications where raw steel isn’t sufficient and a clean, durable appearance is required. Each tube is powder coated in a matte black finish at our U.S. facility, eliminating secondary finishing steps and reducing overall project lead time.

Well suited for retail fixtures, freestanding displays, frames, signage, and visual elements, this larger-diameter tubing provides increased visual presence and stiffness while maintaining a refined, professional look for customer-facing environments.

Why Powder Coat Steel Tubing?

Steel tubing offers excellent strength and rigidity, but unfinished steel often requires additional processing before it can be used in visible applications as well as to protect it from quickly rusting. Powder coating is an environmentally responsible finishing method that delivers a uniform, long-lasting finish that outperforms paint in many commercial and retail environments:

• Scratch and chip resistant
• Consistent color and sheen
• Improved corrosion resistance versus raw steel
• Clean, professional appearance out of the box

Because we powder coat in house, quality control and finish consistency are built into every order. Because tubing is cut to size prior to powder coating, both ends are fully finished, making each tube ready to install or fabricate immediately upon delivery.

Typical Applications

• Retail display uprights and structural elements
• Sign frames and graphic supports
• Garment racks and merchandising fixtures
• Architectural and decorative accents
• Fabrication projects requiring a larger-diameter finished steel tube

Note: Powder coating requires a hang hole. Tubes under 60" long will have a hang hole on one end. Tubes over 60" long (up to 144") may have a hang hole on each end. Hang holes are small and intended for finishing and handling only, not for structural loading.
