Salzgitter Mannesmann Stainless Tubes - Boiler Tubes

"Energy is life...life is responsibility...responsibility for the future..."

That does seem a little dramatic, but how else are we going to know that Salzgitter Mannesmann's stainless tube manufacturing is the best?

This video is a great show of how boiler tubes are produced. I'm not entirely sure what a boiler tube is (other than the obvious 'a metal tube', smart alleck), but the mixture of animations and live footage to show the process makes things far easier to understand.

The alloying and coating that shows up around 5:00 into the video is some serious steel chemistry.
