Stainless Steel Bus and Coach Body Tubes, Sheets, and Components
Stalatube is the global leader in stainless steel bus and coach body tubes, sheets, and components. We supply our customers with tailor-made solutions for bus and coach body and chassis structures, providing them with everything from standard-length tubes to optimized laser-cut and bent components. By choosing the right stainless steel grade and optimizing the structures and dimensions, our customers can significantly decrease their bus body weight.
Our own strength classes, STALA400F for stronger ferritic, STALA630D for stronger Lean Duplex, and STALA800 for stronger austenitic enable the manufacturing of even lighter bus bodies, thanks to the excellent yield strength, elongations, and energy absorption properties of both materials.
The benefits of high-strength stainless steel in the transport industry include lighter structures, better corrosion resistance, and low lifecycle costs. Tailored products reduce material waste and keep the cost level stable. Compared to a traditional carbon steel bus, life cycle costs remain low. Additional benefits come from reduced CO2 emissions, fuel costs, and improved passenger capacity.
A Tailored Experience
While our standard product range covers over 600 products, tailoring is at the core of what we do. Products can be custom-made to customer specifications including lengths, thicknesses, strength, and treatments such as laser cutting, perforations, and surface enhancement. Through our tailoring service, we can also optimize the outer dimensions of hollow sections. Custom-made smart components and pre-fabrication are an option as well.
Tailored and optimized products eliminate the need for post-delivery alterations on-site while reducing material waste and yielding more cost-efficiency in material, transportation, and assembly costs. By manufacturing precisely according to your requirements, we can additionally lower carbon dioxide emissions and increase sustainability.
When your project requires special packaging, ready-to-assemble kit packages, timed deliveries, or material warehousing at our facility, our value-added smart logistics service comes into play. All our products are delivered in a custom packaging that ensures prime condition and easy identification by specification and certification. Accurate, identifiable, and fully traceable deliveries will speed up installation and save you time and costs.
