Tube and Bar Forming

Clark Oil is well versed in both oil and water based technology for tube and bar forming. Our bar forming technology does not rely on using pigmented pastes, which allows for cleaner machine operation and product handling. Clark is experienced with tube roll forming as well as the seamless tube processes such as pilgering and draw bench tube forming. Our water based roll forming technology provides excellent part-finish and lubrication, and offers long lasting corrosion protection on ferrous metals.

Clark has developed excellent water and oil based fluids to meet the needs of virtually any seamless tube forming operation; providing superior finish both on the interior and exterior of the tube. Clark has specific products designed for cold pilgering zirconium alloys, which are the worldwide gold standard among producers of tubes for the nuclear power industry.

Our draw bench fluid technology performs at the same high standards as all our products, and can eliminate chattering to improve the quality of your product output. Clark has also developed a specific line of water free products formulated for the draw bench forming of copper tubes, that are compatible with bright annealing processes.
