1. Using Precision Steel Tubes for Hydraulics

Yes, cold-drawn seamless precision steel tubes are an excellent choice for hydraulic systems, especially in high-pressure, high-precision applications. Our production focuses on premium-grade tubes compliant with DIN 2391, EN 10305-1, and EN 10305-4, ensuring superior performance in demanding hydraulic environments.

Why Choose Our Precision Steel Tubes?

High Pressure Resistance – Our cold-drawn seamless tubes (e.g., ST52, E355) maintain structural integrity even under extreme hydraulic pressures.
Tight Dimensional Tolerances – Standards like DIN 2391 ensure consistent inner diameters (ID) and smooth surfaces, minimizing turbulence and pressure drops.
Superior Surface Finish – Hydraulic systems require smooth internal surfaces to prevent contamination; our tubes meet Ra ≤ 0.8 µm (or better upon request).
Corrosion Resistance – We offer zinc-phosphated, galvanized, or stainless steel options for harsh environments.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio – Cold-drawn tubes provide better mechanical properties than hot-finished pipes.

Common Applications

Hydraulic cylinders & piston rods

High-pressure fluid transfer lines

Pneumatic systems

Industrial machinery requiring precision tubing




2. Tube Fittings vs. Hose Fittings

When designing hydraulic systems, choosing the right fittings is crucial. Our precision tubes work best with tube fittings, but let’s compare them with hose fittings:

Feature

Tube Fittings (for DIN/EN Precision Tubes)

Hose Fittings

Connection Type

Compression, flare, or bite-type (e.g., DIN 2353, ISO 8434-1)

Barbed, clamped, or threaded

Pressure Handling

High pressure (up to 1000+ bar with proper fittings)

Lower pressure (typically < 350 bar)

Vibration Resistance

More rigid, less prone to leaks

Flexible but may loosen over time

Precision Alignment

Perfect for machined hydraulic blocks

Less precise due to hose flexibility

Best Used With

Our DIN 2391 / EN 10305 tubes

Rubber or thermoplastic hoses

Key Takeaway: For high-pressure, leak-free hydraulic systems, precision steel tubes with compression fittings are the best choice.




3. Standard Pipe Finishes for Hydraulic Systems

The surface finish of hydraulic tubing is critical for efficiency and longevity. Our precision tubes meet strict standards:

Common Finishes for Hydraulic Tubes

Cold-Drawn Seamless (CDS) – Smooth internal surface (Ra ≤ 0.8 µm) for reduced friction.
Phosphated (Zinc-Phosphate Coating) – Enhances corrosion resistance and improves oil retention.
Honned / Skived & Rolled – Ultra-smooth finish (Ra ≤ 0.4 µm) for high-performance hydraulics.
Galvanized (Optional) – For outdoor or corrosive environments.

Industry Standards for Hydraulic Tubing

DIN 2391 – Defines precision seamless tubes for mechanical & hydraulic applications.

EN 10305-1 (E235, E355) – Cold-drawn seamless tubes for precision engineering.

EN 10305-4 (St52, St37.4) – Tubes with special tolerances for hydraulic systems.




Conclusion: Why Our Precision Tubes Are Ideal for Hydraulics

Compliant with DIN 2391, EN 10305-1, EN 10305-4 for guaranteed quality.
Superior surface finishes for optimal hydraulic performance.
Compatible with high-pressure tube fittings (DIN 2353, ISO 8434).
