Precision tubes machined to “ready to use” - type HP
“Ready to use” precision tubes (type HP) are used directly for production of the hydraulic cylinders. We offer a wide range of those tubes within the following parameters:
Dimensions of "ready to use" cylinder tubes
INNER DIAMETER (OD) | 40.0 - 110.0 mm |
WALL THICKNESS (WT) | 4.0 - 10.0 mm |
EN 10305-1; DIN 2391; | See tube sizes acc. to European standards |
Tolerances of "ready to use" cylinder tubes
Steel grades of "ready to use" tubes for cylinders
EN 10305-1 EN 10294-1 | E355, 20MnV6, Marking system for steel grades according to EN |
DIN 2391-2 DIN 17100 | St 52 St 52-3 |
Length of HP tubes
- manufactured length of precision tubes in the range of 3 to 6 meters - maximum precise length 6 meters | |
Straightness of "ready to use" HP tubes | |
Straightness of the tubes is 0,001 multiple of the tube length maximum, allowed straightness for one meter length is 1.0 milimeters. |
Tubes ends
The ends are vertical to the longitudinal axis and are without burrs. Upon agreement the tubes may be capped with plastic caps.   |
 
 
Marking of tubes and tube bundles
Packaging of tubes
Tube are supplied in packages with a circular or hexagonal outline with maximum weight of 2 000 kgTube testing
Selection of the tests is either according to standards or upon agreement with customer: | cast / chemical analysis | ||
tensile test, | |||
dimensional inspecti | |||
visual inspection | |||
NDT to find longitudinal defects | |||

Certified test reports for HP tubes
EN 10204 | 3.1 specific testing, |
DIN 50049 | 3.1.B, |
Delivery condition of HP tubes
The tubes are delivered as cold drawn and annealed to relieve the stress BKS (+SR). Other delivery conditions are possible upon agreement. Marking for material condition according to DIN 2391-2 and ASTM 519 may be found here. |
Tubes surface protection
The surface of the tubes is oiled. |
