WORKING PRESSURE OF ST 37.4 NBK HYDRAULIC TUBE

  ST37.4 NBK Hydraulic tubes are made in accordance to DIN 2391 or DIN 2445. It also called as cold drawn precision tube. ST37.4 NBK hydraulic tubes have a NBK finishing, where tubes are normalized, phospated, and oiled inside and outside. ST37.4 Hydraulic tubes  are measured by Outer Diameter (OD) and varies tube thickness (THK). Difference of OD and tube thickness will lead to different working pressure. 

There are two type of material grade for hydraulic steel tubes, ST52.4 and ST37.4. ST52.4 is high tensile strength tube means it has higher permissible working pressures by reduced tube wall thickness, and leading to reduced system overall weight. Please refer to chemical composition for ST52.4 and ST37.4 tube material:

The production Process Of ST37.4 NBK Hydraulic Tubes

  1. Tube Formation
    The process begins with the selection of high-quality steel, which is then cut into the desired lengths. These steel pieces are then heated and pierced to create hollow tube shells.
  2. Cold Drawing​
    The raw steel is then subjected to a cold-drawing process. This involves pulling the steel through a series of dies to reduce its diameter and achieve the desired dimensions. This process not only ensures precise sizing but also enhances the mechanical properties of the tubes for tight tolerances and a smooth surface finish.
  3. Heat Treatment
    To further improve the strength and hardness of the tubes, they undergo a heat treatment process. This involves heating the tubes to a specific temperature and then cooling them rapidly. The controlled cooling process, known as quenching, imparts the desired mechanical properties to the tubes.
  4. Surface Finish
    Both ST37.4 hydraulic tube and St52.4 hydraulic tubes is their exceptional surface finish. This is achieved through various processes like pickling, phosphating, or passivation, depending on the application requirements in order to remove impurities and to ensure a smooth, corrosion-resistant surface.

40CR ALLOY STEEL SPECIFICATION

  40Cr steel  is a kind of Chinese GB standard alloy steel for engineering and machinery purpose, and one of the most widely used steel grades. For 40Cr material hardness, specifications and equivalent, please see the table below. After quenching and tempering treatment, 40Cr steel has good comprehensive mechanical properties, low temperature impact toughness, low notch sensitivity, good hardenability, and high fatigue strength in cold oil. When water cooling, the complicated shape of the parts is prone to cracks, the cold bending plasticity is medium, and the cutting workability after normalizing is good, but the weldability is poor, should be preheated before welding, and is generally used in the state of quenching and tempering. DATASHEET & SPECIFICATION The tables below list 40Cr alloy steel datasheet and specification including chemical composition, properties and heat treatment, etc. 40CR STEEL CHEMICAL COMPOSITION   Chemical Composition (%) Grade C % Si Mn Cr 40Cr 0.37 – 0.4

Honed tubes, SRB tubes, Skived and Roller Burnished tubes for Hydraulic Cylinder

Honed tubes and SRB tubes (skived and roller burnished tubes) are mostly application for hydraulic cylinder and pneumatic cylinder manufacturing, it’s the most important materials of hydraulic cylinder manufacturing.  Honed tube and SRB tube has very accuracy dimension tolerance and good surface smoothness, so this product is also used in applications where precision dimension or high smooth surface is need.   As one of the leading hydraulic cylinder honed tubes suppliers, our honed pipes using our factory’s Annealing Cold Drawn Seamless Tubes (CDS tubes). In order to produce extremely precise ID dimensions and smoothly ID surface, the honing process usually more times than others.  Honed tube for hydraulic cylinder is ready to use for producing or repairing hydraulic cylinders without any further inner surface processing.   PRODUCT STANDARD: ASTM A513, DIN 2391, DIN 1630, DIN 1629, EN 10216-2, A 519, etc on customer’s request. SIZE RANGE: I.D 30 mm to I.D 500 mm (1.5″ – 20″), Wall thi

Skiving &Roller Burnishing Tube And Honing Tube

Image
Skiving and roller burnishing tube  process provide high quality hydraulic cylinders with final sizing and creates the desired finish pattern on the interior of tubing or cylinder bores. They are used in the manufacturing of  hydraulic cylinders . Compared to honing process, they are 80-90% saving of machine time which reduces tool costs per meter of tube length and produces super finish surface, with a bore tolerance of IT8, thereby reduces the sealing wear making it ideal for pistons. The skiving tool is a multifunctional tool used in the manufacturing of hydraulic cylinders. Skiving is operated like this: Two thin chips are cut at a high feed rate (1-4 mm/rev) while the tool passes through the work piece. This cutting operation determines the finished diameter and tolerance of the hydraulic tube. Surface finish Ra= 4-10 μm (skiving) Skiving has obvious advantages compared with honing: • 80-90% saving of machine time which reduces tool costs per meter of tube length. • Produ
