ST52V Low Carbon DOM Steel Tube Cold Drawn ERW Tube for Hydraulic Cylinders
ST52V DOM Low Carbon Steel Tube – Cold Drawn ERW Tube for Hydraulic Cylinders
Material
ST52V DOM tube is a cold drawn, electric resistance welded (ERW) low carbon structural steel tube. Through the DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) process, the tube achieves refined grain structure, uniform wall thickness, and improved mechanical properties. It is specifically engineered for applications requiring high dimensional accuracy, smooth internal surface, and stable performance, such as hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders.

Our Advantages
Customers sourcing DOM tubes for hydraulic cylinders usually focus on quality consistency, surface finish, mechanical reliability, delivery stability, and compliance with standards. We address these concerns as follows:
-
Consistent Inner Surface Quality
The DOM process eliminates weld seam irregularities, ensuring a uniform bore that reduces honing time and tool wear. -
Reliable Mechanical Performance
Controlled cold drawing improves strength and toughness, minimizing deformation risks under high hydraulic pressure. -
Strict Dimensional Tolerance Control
Tight OD and ID tolerances ensure easy assembly and excellent sealing performance in cylinder systems. -
Stable Supply and Batch Traceability
Each production batch is traceable, ensuring repeatable quality for long-term projects and serial production. -
Customization Capability
Heat treatment condition, length, surface protection, and packaging can be tailored to specific hydraulic cylinder requirements.
