Steel tubes for cylinders
Honed and skived cylinder tubes made primarily from ST 52.3 steel are designed for reliable operation in hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. Internal machining ensures a smooth surface finish, extending seal life and enabling stable piston movement under high loads.
Most cylinder tubes are available directly from stock, allowing fast order processing and flexible adaptation to production and maintenance requirements.
Main Advantages
- Smooth piston operation with minimal seal wear.
- High dimensional accuracy including H8 and H9 tolerances.
- Excellent weldability due to ST 52.3 steel.
- Suitable for hydraulic, pneumatic and mechanical engineering applications.
- Wide range of diameters and tolerances available.
Cylinder tubes are essential semi-finished products for hydraulic cylinder barrels where precision, pressure resistance and dimensional stability are required.
