CT-1 GN Steel Tube 24in

The CT-1 GN Steel Tube 24in from Diversified Machine is a precision-engineered axle housing tube designed for heavy-duty automotive and off-road applications requiring structural integrity and dimensional accuracy. This 24-inch steel tube delivers the strength needed for suspension assembly, driveline support, and custom fabrication projects where reliability under load is non-negotiable.

The tube features a 3-inch outer diameter with 2.5-inch inner diameter, maintained by a 0.188-inch wall thickness that balances structural rigidity with weight efficiency. This wall thickness specification is critical for axle housing applications, as it provides adequate strength to handle torque and lateral loads while remaining within fabrication tolerances for welding, pressing, and assembly. The natural steel finish allows for customization—painting, powder coating, or protective treatments can be applied to suit specific environmental or aesthetic requirements. Weighing 14.25 pounds, the 24-inch length positions this tube as a primary component for mid-size axle assemblies or as a foundation piece for longer composite builds.

This tube is engineered for fabricators, off-road builders, custom suspension shops, and automotive restoration specialists who require verified dimensions and material consistency. Whether constructing a rear axle assembly, designing a custom driveline, or engineering suspension geometry for a specialized vehicle, this Diversified Machine steel tube delivers the dimensional accuracy and structural performance expected from a purpose-built component. The 3x3 footprint allows straightforward mounting and integration with standard bearing races, flanges, and attachment points common to production and custom chassis work.
