Introduction
Parker offers three types of seamless metric tubes for hydraulic,
pneumatic and instrumentation applications:
•
Steel seamless cold drawn tube, phosphate and oil
dipped for corrosion resistance
•
Steel seamless cold drawn tube, zinc Chromium-6 free
plating for corrosion resistance
•
Stainless steel cold drawn tube
Conformance and Material Specifications
Tests and Certificates
All tubes are subjected toa non-destructive leak test andmarked
accordingly. This marking is used in lieu of a works certificate
DINEN 10204-2.2.Test Class 1 DINEN 10216-5Table 7 applies
for tubes made of 1.4571 material.
Materials and Mechanical Properties
Steel Types, mechanical properties and conditions are listed
in Table Q1.
Welding Suitability and Weldability:
•
Steel tubes of St. 37.4, R Series, are weldable according
to usual techniques.
•
Not recommended to weld St. 37.4, R-VZ series,
Zinc Chromium-6 Free plated tubes.
Stainless steel tubes of 1.4571 are suitable for arc welding.
The welding filler should be selected in accordance with DIN
EN1600 and DIN EN12072 Part 1 taking into account the type
of application and the welding technique.
Assembly and Installation
Please refer to
for the assembly and installation
instructions for Metric Tube fittings.
Table Q1 — Parker Steel tubes mechanical properties and conditions
Note:
Interpolation is acceptable for intermediate temperature levels.
Table Q2 — Parker stainless tube elevated temperature derating factors
Applications
Recommended Bend Radius
Abend radius of 3 times the tubeO.D.or greater is recommended
for cold bending of Parker tubes with hand, mechanical and
power bending equipment.
*
Use of Tube Supports
The use of VH tube supports for EO and EO-2 fittings is required
in certain thinner wall tubes to ensure proper assembly. Consult
Fig. S45 & Fig. S46 on page S30.
Temperature Range
•
Parker steel (St. 37.4) metric seamless tube can be used
at the full rated working pressures without pressure rating
reductions within the following temperature range: -40°C
to +120°C. Maximum allowable operating temperature of
+250°C.
•
