DIN EN 754-8:2008 Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Cold drawn rod/bar and tube - Part 8: Porthole tubes, tolerances on dimensions and form; English version of DIN EN 754-8:2008-06
This document specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form for aluminium and aluminium alloy cold drawn
porthole tubes with an outside diameter (OD) from 3 mm to 350 mm (round tube, see Figure 1 ) or with a cross
section contained within a circumscribing circle (~'D) from 8 mm to 300 mm (other than round tube, see Figure
2), supplied in straight lengths.
This document only applies to cold drawn tube for general engineering applications made in the following
alloys:
-- EN AW-1050A, EN AW-1200;
-- EN AW-3003, EN AW-3103;
-- EN AW-5005, EN AW-5005A, EN AW-5049, EN AW-5251, EN AW-5052;
-- EN AW-6012, EN AW-6060, EN AW-6061, EN AW-6262, EN AW-6262A;
-- EN AW-6063, EN AW-6063A, EN AW-6065, EN AW-6082;
-- EN AW-7020.
The temper designations used in this part are according to EN 515.
This document only applies to tube produced by the porthole/bridge method of extrusion only (and then cold
drawn to the final dimensions).
This document does not apply to:
-- cold drawn tubes produced by the seamless, die/mandrel method (EN 754-7),
-- tubes delivered in coils (EN 13958),
-- coiled tubes cut to length (EN 13958).
