The enhanced performance of an ultra-high strength steel (UHSS) tube with tensile strength of 980 MPa grade is reported. Recently, strong consideration has been given to the use of steel tubes for automotive components because of the associated weight saving, which leads eventually to a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. Furthermore, the application of steel tubes offers the advantages of increased stiffness and reduced welding processes due to their closed cross-sectional structure. The newly-developed UHSS tubes have an excellent combination of high strength and ductility (ultimate tensile strength: 1016 MPa, elongation to fracture: 14 %) and show remarkable formability such as rotary-bending workability and hydro formability. The key technologies to obtain these superior properties are the application of a cold rolled sheet steel with a DP (Dual Phase) microstructure having an optimized ferrite/martensite ratio and a CBR (Chance-free Bulge Roll) tube forming mill, which minimizes additional strain in the tube making process. The developed UTS 980 MPa grade steel tube has been applied to an actual automotive body part and contributed to not only weight saving but also improved safety.
