Learn About DOM Steel

At WCI Offroad, we want to ensure our products are durable and can withstand the test of time. That's why we use domestic DOM steel for all of our custom SxS cages. 

DOM stands for Drawn Over Mandrel; it's a method used to create high-quality steel tubing through 1020/1026 electric resistance welding. The tube is cold-drawn over a mandrel, which improves the shape, orientation, and grain size. It also provides the tube with better dimensional tolerances and makes the strongest weld strengths achievable. DOM tubing is a staple in the automotive industry due to its exceptional strength, precision, and finish. This degree of precision meets tubular performance requirements for hydraulic systems, automotive parts, and structural members.

Benefits of DOM Tubing:

  • Smooth Surface Finish
  • Consistency and precision for high-accuracy applications
  • The cold-drawn process increases strength-to-weight ratio

Using the highest quality materials is one of the many things WCI Offroad does to manufacture UTV cages designed to protect your safety. Every cage goes through multiple rounds of quality control by experienced individuals throughout the process.
