PN-EN 10305-2 Cold drawn steel tubes for precision applications

The advantage of steel tubes for precision applications is the high precision of their manufacturing, the good quality of their surface, and the guaranteed mechanical and technological properties. That is why the pipes are widely used in the machining industry and in the automotive industry. Welded pipes for precision applications are manufactured in the process of cold drawing.

Delivery condition

Designation Symbol Description
Cold drawn / hard +C Without thermal processing, after the process of cold drawing is finished
Cold drawn / soft +LC After final thermal processing, appropriate drawing
Cold drawn and annealed +SR After the final cold drawing process and annealing thermal processing in a controlled atmosphere
Annealed +A After the final cold drawing process, the pipes are annealed in a controlled atmosphere
Normalized +N After the final cold drawing process, the pipes are normalized in a controlled atmosphere
