Honed Hydraulic Cylinder Tubing — Precision Cold-Drawn Seamless Tube for Automotive
Material
Honed hydraulic cylinder tubing is a precision cold-drawn seamless steel tube whose inside diameter (ID) is honed or skived & roller burnished (SRB) to achieve tight dimensional tolerances and a very smooth bore—critical for hydraulic cylinders where sealing performance, friction, and service life depend heavily on ID quality.
Typical steel families include EN precision grades (E235 / E355), DIN precision grades (St52), and ASTM mechanical tubing grades (SAE 1020 / 1025), selected based on required strength, machinability, and fatigue performance.
Specifications
-
Base tube process: Seamless, cold-finished / cold-drawn mechanical or precision tubing; stress relief and sizing per order.
-
Inside processing: Honed or skived & roller burnished, commonly to ISO H8 / H9 ID tolerance.
-
Typical size window : OD Ø50–245 mm, ID Ø40–200 mm (other sizes by agreement).
-
Surface roughness (ID):
-
SRB: Ra max 0.30 μm
-
Honed: Ra max 0.40 μm
-
-
Straightness (example guidance): local deviation max 1 mm / 1000 mm.
-
Length supply: mill/random lengths or cut-to-length (common hydraulic tube programs include ~5–8 m).
Key Features
-
Ready-to-machine / ready-to-assemble bore: ISO H8/H9 ID tolerance and controlled Ra reduce seal wear and minimize leakage risk.
-
Optimized cylinder performance: Honing can create a cross-grinding pattern; combined with low roughness, it helps reduce friction effects and extend component life.
-
Automotive-grade consistency: Seamless construction and controlled chemistry/mechanics support repeatable machining and stable performance in motion-control components.
Our Advantages
1) “What ID tolerance and Ra can you actually deliver for cylinder bores?”
We supply honed/SRB tubing commonly to ISO H8 or H9 ID tolerance with Ra up to 0.40 μm (honed) or Ra up to 0.30 μm (SRB), matching typical cylinder-tube technical sheets used in the market.
2) “How do you control the inside surface to avoid scoring, pits, and seal damage?”
Inside surface quality is treated as a critical-to-function requirement. ASTM A519 describes an optional requirement for tubing where the inside surface is of prime importance and no stock removal is intended, noting that special processing/selection may be needed to meet the required surface. We align our inspection plan accordingly (bore visual checks, roughness verification, dimensional gauging; and NDT can be agreed when required).
3) “Can you provide traceability, certificates, and shipping protection for long-distance supply?”
We support full traceability with heat/lot documentation and can provide EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certificates when specified. Packaging and storage guidance is treated as part of delivery quality (dry covered storage, careful lifting/handling, and protection of finished surfaces).
