Precision tube is a seamless steel pipe with high precision and high smoothness. Its inner and outer diameter dimensions can be accurately controlled to within 0.2mm, and the diameter, wall thickness, and concentricity can be precisely controlled. While ensuring bending and torsional strength, it can also meet the requirement of lightweight.

Precision tubes have the advantages of no oxide layer, no leakage under high pressure, no deformation during cold bending, no expansion or cracking during flattening, and are widely used in the manufacturing of precision mechanical parts, engineering structures, automotive parts, as well as the production of various conventional weapons, gun barrels, shells, bearings, etc.
