Thin-walled tubes

Durable - efficient - cost-effective

Thin-walled tubes are employed in applications ranging from commercial vehicles and construction machines to traditional machinery and plant engineering. Thin-walled tubes are steel and stainless steel pipes primarily from a diameter of 42 mm onwards, and a wall thickness of up to 2 mm, as well as all aluminium pipes. They are mainly used in the drive technology sector for charge air, coolant and exhaust gas piping or their systems. We manufacture thin-walled tubes with various radii as bent parts, welded components or in combination. The use of flexible hose elements and compensators is also common in these systems.

Applications:

• Suction pipes and clean air pipes
• Charge air pipes for hot and cold applications
• Exhaust gas pipes and systems including integral insulation or flexible insulation
• Cooling pipes
• Pipes for agricultural and forestry engineering
• Custom solutions for special vehicles
• Piping for generators and gas turbines
• Custom solutions in the area of vacuum engineering

Our strengths:

• Comprehensive selection of thin-walled tubes with large diameters
• PPipe bends perfectly matched to them, with R≤1xD
• Stage IV / TIER 4F - compatible exhaust gas systems and insulation
• Joining of various individual elements into one functional component
• Combination of various diameters
• Combination with standard hoses, especially bellows hoses into a compact system
• Compact assemblies by means of tight pipe bends and perfect mitre cuts
• From special and sample construction up to batches

Coatings and surfaces:

• Steel tubes, bare
• ACC (Aquence® 930TM) coated steel tubes up to 230°C
• Steel tubes with various other electroplating
• Heat protection coating up to 500°C / 900°C
• Stainless steel pipes, pickled and passivated or electro-polished

Connection standards:

• Male and female flange with suitable V-brackets from 2" up to 5"
• V-flange flat sealing and O-ring sealing
• Standard bead (similar to DIN 71550)
• Combination of standard bead with standard stop bead
• 3X bead
• Suitable V-brackets from 2" to 8"
• DIN flange and SAE flange
• NOX bushes
• Various inner and outer thread bushes

Advantages of use:

• Low space requirement through tight radii
• About 40% less weight as compared to components with standard wall thickness
• Single piece manufacture as well as small to medium batches possible
• Prototype building together with the customer
• Fair and competitive prices
• One contact person for all questions related to thin-walled tubes or other hydraulic components and solutions
