Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to coiled steel tubes and methods of manufacturing coiled steel tubes. In some embodiments, the final microstructures of the coiled steel tubes across all base metal regions, weld joints, and heat affected zones can be homogeneous. Further, the final microstructure of the coiled steel tube can be a mixture of tempered martensite and bainite.

A steel cord that is suitable for reinforcing rubber articles such as tires. The inventive steel cord enables to completely eliminate the presence of cobalt in a tire when combined with the proper cobalt free compound. Advantageously the steel cord adheres equally well to rubbers containing organic cobalt salts. The inventive wire is different from prior art steel cords in that the brass coating now comprises iron particles. The iron particles have a size between 10 nm and 10 000 nm. The presence of iron mitigates the adhesion retention loss of the rubber to steel cord bond in a hot and humid environment. It is a further advantage that the inventive steel cord does not contain any intentionally added cobalt thereby contributing to the elimination of harmful substances in the production area as well as the environment.

Disclosed is a preparation method for a composite which comprises the following steps: (a) preparing unit metal pieces comprising two or more types of different metals; (b) circumferentially arranging the two or more types of unit metal pieces in a mold comprising upper and lower dies; (c) applying compressive stress to the loaded metal pieces using the upper and lower dies; and (d) rotating the upper and lower dies in one or two directions to apply torque in the pressed state.

There is disclosed a laminated composite structure (12) having a plurality of laminae (13) formed of composite material, and at least one reinforcing pin (3) provided within the structure so as to extend between adjacent laminae (13). The at least one reinforcing pin (3) is formed from a plurality of interlaced metal filaments (1, 2). There is also disclosed a related method for reinforcing a laminated composite structure (12) via the use of at least one said reinforcing pin (3).

The invention is a method for forming a continuous strand of wire into a spiral support structure. The method includes winding a continuous strand of wire around a first central axis into a primary spiral. The primary spiral thereafter is stretched linearly to form an elongated spiral of desired pitch, which is then wound around a second central axis to form spiral support structure. This resulting spiral support structure can have two or more sides. The amount of sides depends on ratio of first axis to the second axis along with the pitch of the spiral. The crest and depressions of the structure are linearly aligned, and are parallel to each other.

There are provided a method for producing a magnesium alloy sheet having good press formability and a magnesium alloy coil stock obtained by coiling the magnesium alloy sheet. After a raw material sheet 1 composed of a magnesium alloy is preheated to 280 C. or less, the heated raw material sheet 1 is rolled with a reduction roll 3 and the obtained long rolled sheet is coiled. The surface temperature of the reduction roll 3 is set to be 230 C. or more and 290 C. or less. The preheating, rolling, and coiling are repeatedly performed in a continuous manner. By setting both the temperatures of the raw material sheet 1 and reduction roll 3 to be certain temperatures, the rolling property of the raw material sheet can be improved and the raw material sheet can be properly rolled in a continuous manner. In addition, a variation in temperature in the width direction of the reduction roll can be suppressed and uniform rolling can be performed, resulting in the production of a long magnesium alloy sheet. In this magnesium alloy sheet, working strain is sufficiently introduced by rolling and an increase in the size of crystal grains is suppressed. Thus, the magnesium alloy sheet has good press formability. Furthermore, a coil stock in which telescoping is not easily caused and that has good appearance is obtained.
