ULTRAFOCO

The alloy selected by Columbus

  • Thermacrom: is a skilful steel mixture of Manganese, Chrome, Molybdenum and Vandium. These elements give the material an excellent increase in hardening and reduce the sensitivity to overheating . The alloy structure has fine grain - suitable to support the fatigue - that improves the characteristics of resistance to corrosion. Thermacrom has been conceived for top of the range frames where extreme performance is required.
  • Mechanical Characteristics: Rm = 1250/1450 N/mm Rs= 1100 N/mm Ap5>12%.
  • The characteristics of the Ultrafoco tubes

  • Thickness never used before (0.38 mm.)
  • Excellent mechanical properties due to Thermacrom steel alloy that allows to obtain Mechanical Characteristics higher than 1450 N/mm
  • Reasons to choose Ultrafoco

  • Athlete: Ultra Foco is a steel alloy tubeset projected to reach weights similar to the aluminium ones. This alIows the production of high performance frames where lightness and stiffness are strictly required.
  • Framebuilder: Ultrafoco is the lightest triple butted tubeset existent. This allows easy workability of the tubes during the assembling and the reduction of the working time.
  • Progetto Ultrafoco: road, MTB, triathlon professional frames
