Precision Steel Pipe Product Detailed Description

1. Product Definition

Precision steel pipes are high-precision pipes manufactured by cold drawing / cold rolling process. They feature micron-level dimensional accuracy, smooth inner and outer walls without oxide layers, and can be directly used in high-pressure and sealing scenarios. They are divided into precision seamless steel pipes and precision welded steel pipes, with precision seamless steel pipes as the mainstream.

2. Executive Standards

  • GB/T 3639-2021: Cold drawn / Cold rolled Precision Seamless Steel Pipe (Core Standard)

  • GB/T 8162-2018: Seamless Steel Pipe for Structural Purpose

  • GB/T 8163-2018: Seamless Steel Pipe for Fluid Transportation

  • DIN 2391, EN 10305: International Precision Pipe Standards

3. Material & Chemical Composition (Common Grades)

Material Grade Main Chemical Composition (%) Characteristics & Application
10# / 20# C:0.07~0.23; Si:0.17~0.37; Mn:0.35~0.65 Low carbon steel with good plasticity; used for general machinery and fluid pipelines
45# C:0.42~0.50 Medium carbon steel with high strength after quenching and tempering; used for shaft parts and mold ejector pins
16Mn(Q345) C≤0.20; Mn:1.20~1.60 Low-alloy high-strength steel; applied in structural parts and engineering machinery
40Cr / 42CrMo Cr:0.80~1.10; Mo:0.15~0.25 Alloy steel with excellent hardenability; used for hydraulic cylinder tubes and heavy-load shafts

4. Specification Range (Custom Available)

  • Outer Diameter: 4mm–120mm (Common: 6mm–80mm)

  • Wall Thickness: 0.5mm–16mm (Common: 1mm–10mm)

  • Length: 2m–6m (Fixed length / Multiple length optional)

  • Precision Grade:

    • Standard Grade: Outer diameter tolerance ±0.10mm, wall thickness ±10%

    • High Precision Grade: Outer diameter tolerance ±0.05mm, wall thickness ±8% (Mainstream)

  • Surface Roughness: Inner wall Ra≤0.4μm, Outer wall Ra≤0.8μm

5. Production Process

  1. Pipe Billet Preparation: Hot rolled seamless pipe / welded pipe billet → Pickling / Phosphating / Saponification (lubrication)

  2. Cold Drawing / Cold Rolling:

  • Cold Drawing: Single-pass drawing, suitable for small batch and simple section

  • Cold Rolling: Three-roll / multi-roll rolling with refined grain structure and higher precision (Mainstream)

  • Heat Treatment: Vacuum annealing / Bright annealing (stress relief, structure softening, non-oxidation)

  • Finishing: Straightening, fixed-length cutting, internal & external polishing, non-destructive testing (Eddy current / Ultrasonic)

  • Packing: Anti-rust oil + Moisture-proof film + Woven bag (Both ends sealed for dust prevention)

  • 6. Core Features

    • Ultra-high Precision: Outer diameter tolerance ±0.05mm, good dimensional consistency and interchangeability

    • Superior Surface Finish: No oxide layer, cracks or pitting on inner and outer walls; inner wall Ra≤0.4μm, no secondary processing required for hydraulic system use

    • Excellent Mechanical Properties:Tensile Strength: 400MPa–1200MPa (adjustable by material and heat treatment)No deformation after cold bending, no crack after flaring & flattening; no leakage under pressure ≥10MPa

    • Cost Saving: Material utilization increased by 15%–30% compared with ordinary steel pipes, reducing machining time and overall cost

    7. Main Application Fields

    • Hydraulic & Pneumatic System: Hydraulic cylinder tube, air cylinder tube, high-pressure oil pipe

    • Automobile Manufacturing: Steering sleeve, shock absorber pipe, drive shaft, fuel injection pipe

    • Precision Machinery: Machine tool spindle, bearing sleeve, linear guide, instrument pipe

    • Aerospace: Hydraulic pipeline and structural support parts

    • Medical Equipment: Needle tube, catheter, endoscopic components

    • Fluid Transportation: High-purity gas, hydraulic oil and chemical medium pipeline

    8. Delivery Condition & Surface Treatment

    • Delivery Condition: Annealed (soft state, easy processing), Cold finished (hard state, high strength), Bright annealed (non-oxidation & bright surface)

    • Surface Treatment:Standard: Anti-rust oil coatingOptional: Pickling & passivation, Galvanizing, Chromium plating, Inner wall super polishing (Ra≤0.2μm)

    9. Quality Inspection

    • Dimensional Inspection: Outer diameter, wall thickness, length, straightness

    • Surface Inspection: Visual inspection + Endoscope inspection

    • Mechanical Property Test: Tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, hardness (HB/HRC)

    • Non-destructive Testing: Eddy current testing (surface defects), Ultrasonic testing (internal defects)

    • Pressure Test: Hydrostatic / Pneumatic pressure test, 1.5 times design pressure holding without leakage

    10. Advantage Comparison: Precision Steel Pipe vs Ordinary Seamless Steel Pipe

    Item Precision Steel Pipe Ordinary Seamless Steel Pipe
    Dimensional Tolerance ±0.05mm (High Precision) ±0.1~0.5mm
    Surface Roughness Inner wall Ra≤0.4μm Ra≥1.6μm with oxide layer
    Pressure Resistance ≥10MPa, No leakage ≤5MPa, Easy leakage
    Machining Allowance 0.1mm–0.3mm (Little cutting) 1mm–3mm (Heavy machining)
    Comprehensive Cost Higher unit price, lower overall cost Lower unit price, high subsequent processing cost

    11. Selection Suggestion

    1. By Precision Requirement: Choose high precision grade ±0.05mm for hydraulic & sealing occasions; standard grade for common structure

    2. By Material:General machinery: 20# / 45#High pressure & heavy load: 40Cr / 42CrMo

    3. By Specification: Prefer conventional sizes for faster delivery

    4. By Surface: Bright annealing + inner wall polishing recommended for hydraulic system

    12. Packing & Delivery

    • Packing: Plastic end caps → Moisture-proof film wrapping → Woven bag / Wooden case

    • Transportation: Truck / Railway transportation, avoid rain, sunlight and violent collision

    • Delivery Time: Conventional specifications 5-7 working days
