Atlas Air Compressor Oil Pipe 2205220757 High Pressure Hydraulic Tube
An oil pipe is a specialized conduit designed for the efficient and safe transportation of hydraulic fluids, lubricants, fuels, and other industrial oils within a system. Engineered to withstand high pressures, temperature fluctuations, vibration, and potential chemical aggression, these pipes serve as the essential vascular system of machinery, ensuring oil reaches critical components without leakage or failure.
The primary function of an oil pipe is reliable fluid conveyance with these specific purposes:
- Power Transmission: Transporting high-pressure hydraulic fluid to transfer power throughout a system
- Lubrication Delivery: Supplying lubricating oil to bearings, gears, and other moving parts
- Fuel Transfer: Delivering fuel from tanks to engines or combustion systems
- Heat Transfer: Circulating oil as a cooling medium in heat exchangers
- Return Lines & Drainage: Providing a path for oil to return to the reservoir or sump
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| High-Pressure Resistance | Constructed from high-strength materials to withstand system surge pressures without bursting |
| Corrosion & Erosion Resistance | Internal and external coatings protect against rust and wear from fluid-borne particles |
| Seamless Construction | Eliminates potential weak points for leaks or failures |
| Precise Dimensions | Consistent diameters ensure proper flow characteristics and fitting attachment |
| Durability & Fatigue Resistance | Withstands constant vibration, pressure cycles, and mechanical stress |
| Cleanliness | Internally clean and pre-treated to prevent contamination of sensitive systems |
| Type | Description | Primary Application |
|---|---|---|
| Seamless Steel Hydraulic Tube | Cold-drawn, precision-sized tubing with smooth interior finish | High-pressure hydraulic lines and manifolds |
| Hydraulic Hose Assembly | Flexible hose with reusable or crimped fittings | Connections between moving components requiring flexibility |
| Welded & Drawn (W&D) Tube | Welded seam drawn through a die to smooth the interior | Medium-pressure hydraulic systems and lubrication lines |
| Stainless Steel Tube | Superior corrosion resistance for harsh environments | Marine applications, chemical processing, food machinery |
| Carbon Steel Pipe (Schedule) | Thick-walled, threaded for larger diameter lines | Low-pressure oil return lines and large-volume transfer |
| Copper & Brass Tubing | Easily bent and corrosion-resistant | Low-pressure lubrication systems and instrument lines |
- Size Range: From ¼" OD to several inches diameter

- Surface Treatment: Phosphated, Galvanized, Pickled & Oiled
Oil pipes are critical in virtually every sector that uses fluid power or lubrication:
- Mobile Hydraulics: Excavators, bulldozers, agricultural equipment
- Industrial Machinery: Injection molding machines, metal presses, CNC tools
- Power Generation: Hydraulic control systems in turbines
- Transportation: Fuel lines, brake systems in trucks and aircraft
- Marine & Offshore: Steering gear, winch systems, engine room hydraulics
- Mining & Forestry: Heavy-duty equipment in extreme conditions
Consider these critical factors for optimal performance and safety:
- Operating Pressure: Choose a pipe with rating exceeding system's maximum working pressure
- Fluid Compatibility: Ensure material compatibility with oil type (mineral, synthetic, etc.)
- Environment: Consider temperature, chemical exposure, UV radiation, abrasion
- Flexibility vs. Rigidity: Use rigid tubing for fixed layouts, flexible hose for moving components
- Size (ID & OD): Inner diameter must maintain flow velocity, outer diameter must match standard fittings
- Certified Quality: Manufactured to DIN, ASTM, SAE standards with full material traceability
- Superior Performance: Excellent surface finish minimizes friction and pressure loss
- Expert Technical Support: Assistance selecting right material and specifications
- Complete Range: Comprehensive inventory of tubing, hose, and fittings
- Customization: Cutting, bending, and threading services available
