Manufactured in accordance with EN 10305-4 (DIN 2391/C). Normalised, eddy current-controlled, phosphated or non-phosphated, oiled. These tubes are particularly suited for hydraulic and pneumatic systems. We stock these tubes in E235 quality as standard, but E355 can be offered in several different dimensions. The density of both phosphated and non-phosphated tubes is tested by eddy-current testing. The tubes are stocked in manufactured lengths of 6 000 mm. Certificate EN 10204/3.1 can be obtained at an additional cost. We only stock the bonderised variant of E355.
Galvanized hydraulic pipeline tubes
Manufactured in accordance with EN 10305-4 (DIN 2391/C). Our stock of galvanised hydraulic pipeline tubes are normalised, eddy-current controlled, electrolytic zinc-coated (min 12 my or min 25 my) and VI-free thick-film passivated. These tubes are particularly suited for hydraulic and pneumatic systems. We stock E235 and E355 qualities. All hydraulic pipeline tubes are leak tested using eddy-current testing. The tubes are delivered with manufactured lengths of 6 000 mm.
Zistaplex
The surface of ZistaPlex has very good forming properties, which means that common processing operations can be performed on ZistaPlex without damaging the surface. Threading in accordance with DIN and SAE can also be performed without removing the coating.
