This part of EN 755 specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form for aluminium and aluminium alloy extruded seamless tubes with an outside diameter (OD) from 8 mm to 450 mm (round tube, see Figure 1) or with a cross-section contained within a circumscribing circle (CD) from 10 mm to 350 mm (other than round tube, see Figure 2), supplied in straight lengths.
This standard applies only to tube produced by the seamless die/mandrel method of extrusion.
This standard applies to extruded seamless tube for general engineering applications only.
This standard does not apply to extruded tube produced by tube porthole/bridge method or coiled tube.
