Precision Cold Drawn Welded Steel Tubes (CDW) – EN 10305-2 E235 & E355
High-Tolerance Steel Tubing for Hydraulic, Automotive & Mechanical Engineering
Suao Metal manufactures cold drawn welded (CDW) steel tubes to strict EN 10305-2 standards in grades E235 and E355. Our precision-drawn tubes offer exceptional dimensional accuracy, superior surface quality, and enhanced mechanical properties – perfect for critical applications where reliability matters.
Key Advantages of Our EN 10305-2 CDW Tubes
·Ultra-Precise Dimensions – Tight tolerances (DIN EN ISO 3304) for exact fitment
·Enhanced Strength – Cold working increases yield strength by 15-20% vs. hot-finished
·Premium Surface Quality – Smooth, scale-free finish (Ra ≤ 2.5μm) ready for plating/painting
·Strict Standard Compliance – Full traceability to EN 10305-2 specifications
·Material Versatility – Available in both E235 (S235JR equivalent) and higher-strength E355 (S355JR equivalent)
