Metric Steel Hydraulic Tubing

Steel Hydraulic Tubing: Strength, Durability, and Precision for Every System!

Steel hydraulic metric tubing is a type of tubing made from carbon steel, designed for use in hydraulic systems that operate under high pressure. It is known for its strength, durability, and ability to withstand harsh conditions.

Key Features:

• Strength and Durability: Carbon steel tubing can withstand high-pressure conditions and is durable enough to handle mechanical stress and vibrations within hydraulic systems.
• Metric Sizes: Unlike standard hydraulic tubing, which may use imperial (inches) measurements, steel hydraulic metric tubing is sized according to the metric system, typically in millimetres for both the outer diameter and wall thickness.
• Corrosion Resistance: While carbon steel can be prone to rust if exposed to moisture, the tubing is often treated or coated to enhance corrosion resistance. It is well-suited for indoor or controlled environments, or applications where corrosion is less of a concern.
• Applications: Commonly used in industries such as construction, agriculture, automotive, and manufacturing. It is used in fluid transport systems, hydraulic machines, and heavy equipment.
• Cost-Effective: Carbon steel is generally more affordable than other materials like stainless steel, making it a popular choice for many hydraulic applications.

DIN 2391/C ST37.4 refers to a specific type of steel hydraulic tubing that conforms to the DIN 2391 standard, which is a German standard for seamless precision steel tubes. The "C" and "ST37.4" denote certain characteristics of the material:

• DIN 2391: This is the standard that specifies the technical requirements for precision seamless steel tubes used in hydraulic systems. It covers aspects such as material composition, dimensions, tolerances, and surface quality.
• ST37.4: This indicates a particular grade of steel. "ST37" is a type of carbon steel, and the "4" indicates that the steel has been manufactured for hydraulic tube applications. ST37 is often used for general structural applications, offering good weldability and machinability. It is commonly used in construction and engineering.
• C: The "C" designation within DIN 2391 refers to a specific class of the steel tube, indicating it has been produced with high precision and smooth surfaces, making it suitable for use in high-pressure hydraulic systems. The "C" class generally ensures tighter tolerances and a higher level of finish compared to other classes.
