Overview

This European Standard specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form for aluminium and aluminium alloys cold drawn seamless tubes with an outside diameter from 3 mm to 350 mm (round tube) or with a cross section contained within a circumscribing circle from 8 mm to 300 mm (other than round tube) supplied in straight lengths. This European Standard only applies to tube produced by the seamless die/mandrel method of extrusion and then cold drawn to the final dimensions required) The temper designations used in this part are according to EN 515. This document applies to cold drawn, seamless tube for general engineering applications. This document does not apply to cold drawn tube produced by the porthole/bridge method (EN 754-8), tubes delivered in coils (EN 13958) or coiled tubes cut to length (EN 13958). This European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 132/WG 5 "Extruded and drawn products" (secretariat: SN, Norway). On the national level the responsible committee is NA 066-01-04 AA "Strangpresserzeugnisse" ("Extruded products") at DIN Standards Committee Nonferrous Metals (FNNE).
