This study explores the reasons underlying the frequent appearance of “marking problem ”during the production of double-walled copper-brazed steel tubes. To this end,we compared two types of copper-coated steel strips,of which one has almost no problem during production,whereas the other has higher number of incidences of“marking problem”. We analyzed the chemical composition,mechanical properties,the cross-sectional metallographs,and surface quality of the trimmed edge in both types of specimen. After the roll forming process,the bonding condition between the steel layers of the tubes before and after brazing process has also been examined. Results indicate that the chemical composition and mechanical properties of the two kinds of strips are similar; however,the edge quality of the trimmed strips is significantly different. It is believed that the irregular shape of the edge portions in the strips will be more pronounced during the bevel treatment. Consequently,smooth and tight seams cannot be guaranteed by such uneven beveled edges,which lead to higher number of incidences of “marking problem”during production.
