EN 10305 – 4 Steel tubes for precision applications – Technical delivery conditions – Part 4: Seamless cold drawn tubes for hydraulic and pneumatic power systems
This part of this European Standard specifies the technical delivery conditions for seamless cold drawn steel tubes of circular cross section used in hydraulic and pneumatic power systems.
Tubes according to this part of this European Standard are characterized by having precisely defined tolerances on dimensions and a specified surface roughness.
The allowed pressure rates and temperatures are the responsibility of the customer in accordance with the state of the art in application of the safety coefficients specified in the applicable regulations, codes or standards.

a Elements not included in this Table(but see footnote b) shall not be intentionally added to the steel without the agreement of the purchaser except for elements which may be added for finishing the cast. All appropriate measures shall be taken to prevent the addition of undesirable elements from scrap or other materials used in the steel making process.
b Addition of Nb, Ti and V are permitted at the discretion of the manufucturer. The content of these elements shall be reports.
