A process for manufacturing a low-carbon steel pressure vessel, which may be used as an inflator housing (18), comprises providing a cylindrical billet of low-carbon steel which comprises by weight about 0.07% to about 0.15% carbon, about 1% to about 2% manganese, less than about 0.02% phosphorous, less than about 0.015% sulfur, about 0.5% to about 2.10% chromium, about 0.2% to about 1.0% nickel, about 0.2% to about 0.7% molybdenum, less than about 0.65% copper, less than about 0.25% residual elements, and the balance of the composition iron. A tube is formed with a cylindrical wall by axially piercing the cylindrical billet, while the cylindrical billet is heated is at a temperature of about 1000° C. to about 1300° C. The thickness of the cylindrical wall is then reduced to a first thickness by a first cold drawing of the tube. The tube is annealed after the first cold drawing. The thickness of the cylindrical wall is further reduced to a second thickness by a second cold drawing. The cylindrical wall is reduced in thickness less than about 26% during the second cold drawing step. |
