What is honed tube?
Honed tube is usually a CDS (Cold drawn seamless) steel tube or DOM (Drawn Over Mandrel) steel tube with inside diameter honed or skived &roller burnished, so honed tubing is with extremely precise ID dimensions and smoothly ID surface.
This product is broadly utilized to produce and repair hydraulic cylinders and pneumatic cylinders. So in many fields, it is called hydraulic cylinder tube also.
Honed Tube Manufacturing method:
Honed tubes usually are produced by two main manufacturing process, which are honing process or skiving & roller burnishing process. The mother tube we usually use “Suitable To Hone” Cold Drawn Seamless Tubes. The process of the honed tubing is determined upon the dimension, mold available and the requirement of the customer.
Honed Tube Materials:
The most popular material of our honed tubes is carbon steel grade ST 52.3 / E355. And we also produce honed cylinder tubes in other materials such as SAE 1020 / 1026, 4140 / 42CrMo, stainless steel and so on.
Honed tube Sizes:
As the leading hydraulic cylinder honed tube suppliers, most of the factories can produce honed cylinder tubes in a wide range of metric sizes and imperial sizes. Here below is the typical size range.
Inside Diameter 32mm to 600mm; Imperial sizes 1.5 inch to 30 inch.
For detailed sizes, please refer to our honed tube size chart.
Normally honed tubing is supplied in fixed length or random lengths, the max. Length is 14 meters, sometimes even longer for special application purpose.
Where to buy high quality honed tubes?
Honed tubes are critical components in the production and repair of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. Their surface finish and dimensional precision directly impact the performance, durability, and safety of the entire cylinder system. That’s why selecting high-quality honed tubes is essential.
Globally, several manufacturers are recognized for their premium honed tubing products, including industry leaders like Team Tube, CRC, and Sandvik. In China, SKYLINE PIPES has established a strong reputation as a reliable and high-quality honed tubing manufacturer serving both domestic and international markets.
