Other Gas Cylinder Applications


hollows for other applications

Tenaris supplies a wide range of tubular products for the food and beverage industry and medical applications as well as for scuba-diving cylinders.


 

A PRODUCT RANGE THAT COMPLIES with the most stringent QUALITY requirements

Tenaris has over one hundred years of experience in manufacturing seamless steel tubes and managing the entire production process from steel casting to non-destructive testing operations. With the support of our network of internal R&D centers, we are able to comply with the most stringent requirements set by an industry in continuous evolution.

Application

Tubes for special high-pressure gas cylinders

Manufacturing process

Cold-drawn

Steel grades

Chrome-molybdenum (e.g., 34CrMo4, SAE 4130X, etc.)

Size range

Outer diameter Up to 280 mm
Wall thickness ≥ 2 mm

Mechanical properties

Defined by heat treatment parameters

Delivery conditions

Stress-relieved or normalized

Special Applications

We can produce special cold-drawn tubes with restricted dimensional tolerances, higher surface quality and customized sizes in a wide range of diameters, wall thicknesses and lengths for use by the food and beverage industry, in medical applications such as breathing apparatus, and in scuba diving cylinders.

Furthermore, the cold-drawing process means that lightweight tubes can be produced for use as liners in hoop-wrapped (type II) or full-wrapped (type III) cylinders.

Steel Grades and Dimensional Range

For this application, our seamless cold-drawn chrome-molybdenum (e.g., 34CrMo4, SAE 4130X, etc.) steel tubes are supplied in stress-elieved or normalized conditions, in a wide range of sizes with a range of outer diameters up to 280 mm.

They are characterized by high steel cleanliness, restricted chemical composition bands, tight dimensional tolerances and controlled surface quality, in order to ensure the best performance as part of our customers' manufacturing processes.
