Precision Cold Drawn Seamless Tube

Precision Cold Drawn Seamless Tube
Product description:

Precision seamless pipe is a type of steel pipe formed by punching through round steel, with no welds on the surface. According to the production method, seamless steel pipes are divided into hot-rolled seamless steel pipes, cold-rolled seamless steel pipes, cold-drawn seamless steel pipes, and hot-expanded seamless steel pipes. Seamless steel pipes are classified into two types based on their cross-sectional shape: circular and special-shaped.

A Precision Cold Drawn Seamless Tube is a high-quality steel product designed for applications that require exceptional dimensional accuracy, surface smoothness, and mechanical strength. Manufactured through a cold drawing process without welding, these seamless tubes deliver superior precision, uniformity, and reliability compared to standard welded pipes. They are widely used in the automotive, hydraulic, mechanical, and energy industries where tight tolerances and high performance are essential.

Manufacturing Process

The production of precision Cold drawn seamless tubes begins with a hot rolled seamless steel tube. This initial tube is carefully cleaned, pickled, and then lubricated before being drawn through a die and mandrel under cold conditions. The cold drawing process refines the tube’s dimensions, improves surface finish, and enhances mechanical properties such as tensile strength and hardness. After drawing, the tubes undergo stress relieving, annealing, straightening, and non-destructive testing to ensure outstanding quality and uniform structure.

This advanced cold working process eliminates internal defects and produces a tube with excellent dimensional accuracy, typically within ±0.05 mm. The inner and outer surfaces achieve a fine finish, often with a roughness value below Ra 1.6 μm, making them ideal for precision assemblies and fluid transmission systems.

Material Grades

Precision cold drawn seamless tubes can be made from a variety of carbon steel and alloy steel grades, such as:

10#, 20#, 35#, 45# carbon steel

ST35, ST37.4, ST45, ST52 (DIN standards)

E235, E255, E355 (EN 10305-1 standard)

A519 1020, 1045, 4130, 4140 alloy steels (ASTM standards)

Each grade offers different combinations of strength, toughness, and machinability, allowing the tube to meet diverse engineering requirements.

Features and Advantages

• High Dimensional Precision: Extremely tight tolerances for outer diameter, wall thickness, and concentricity.
• Smooth Surface Finish: Bright inner and outer surfaces reduce friction and improve flow performance.
• Enhanced Mechanical Properties: Increased tensile and yield strength after cold drawing.
• Excellent Machinability: Suitable for precision machining, threading, and forming.
• No Weld Seam: Ensures uniform strength and eliminates the risk of leakage.
• Superior Cleanliness: Ideal for hydraulic and pneumatic systems requiring clean inner surfaces.

Application

Precision cold drawn seamless tubes are widely used across industries that demand high precision and performance, including:

• Automotive Industry: For manufacturing shock absorber tubes, steering columns, and drive shafts.
• Hydraulic Systems: As hydraulic cylinder tubes and fluid power components.
• Mechanical Engineering: For precision machinery, shafts, and rollers.
• Aerospace and Energy: For structural components and high-pressure applications.
• Instrumentation and Measurement Equipment: Where high accuracy and reliability are critical.

The application scope of seamless steel pipes is very wide, including structures, fluid transportation, low to medium pressure boilers, high-pressure boilers, fertilizer equipment, petroleum cracking, geological drilling, diamond core drilling, petroleum drilling, ships, automotive half-shaft sleeves, diesel engines, etc. The use of seamless steel pipes will ensure no leakage problems, guarantee the usage effect, and improve material utilization. It can be seen that the application of seamless steel pipes mainly covers three major fields. The first is the construction field, which can be used for underground pipeline transportation, including extracting groundwater during construction. The second is the processing field, which can be used for mechanical processing, bearing sleeves, etc. The third is the electrical field, including gas pipelines and fluid pipelines for hydropower generation.
