Aluminium and aluminium alloys - HF seam welded tubes - Part 3: Tolerances on dimensions and form for circular tubes
This part of prEN 1592 specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form of circular HF seam welded tubes with a diameter up to and including 80 mm and a wall thickness up to and including 2,5 mm. These tubes are manufactured from flat rolled aluminium alloy strip longitudinally welded in a continuous process by the passage of an electric current across the abutting edges without the addition of filler metal. This standard also applies to tubes manufactured from aluminium alloy strip which is painted, lacquered or anodized prior to forming.
Aluminium und Aluminiumlegierungen - HF-längsnahtgeschweißte Rohre - Teil 3: Grenzabmaße und Formtoleranzen für Rundrohre
Dieser Teil von prEN 1592 legt die Grenzabmaße und Formtoleranzen für HF-längsnahtgeschweißte Rundrohre mit einem Durchmesser bis 80 mm und einer Wanddicke bis 2,5 mm fest. Diese Rohre werden aus kaltgewalztem Band aus Aluminiumlegierungen hergestellt, das kontinuierlich durch einen Stromdurchgang zwischen den beiden gegenüberliegenden Kanten ohne Einsatz von Schweißzusatzwerkstoffen längsnahtgeschweißt wird. Er gilt auch für Rohre aus vorlackiertem, vorbeschichtetem oder voranodisiertem Band aus Aluminiumlegierungen.
Aluminium et alliages d'aluminium - Tubes électrosoudés HF - Partie 3: Tolérances sur dimensions et forme des tubes a section circulaire
La présente partie du prEN 1592 spécifie les tolérances sur forme et dimensions des tubes électrosoudés HF à section circulaire de diamètre jusqu'à et y compris 80 mm et d'épaisseur de paroi jusqu'à et y compris 2,5 mm. Ces tubes sont fabriqués à partir de bandes laminées à plat en alliage d'aluminium, soudées longitudinalement en continu par passage d'un courant électrique entre les deux rives mises en regard, sans utilisation de métal d'apport. La présente norme s'applique également aux tubes fabriqués à partir de bandes en alliage d'aluminium peintes, laquées ou anodisées avant formage.

Overview
SIST EN 1592-3:1998 specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form for circular HF (High Frequency) seam welded tubes made from aluminium and its alloys. It applies to tubes with an outside diameter up to and including 80 mm and wall thickness up to and including 2.5 mm. These aluminium tubes are produced from flat-rolled aluminium alloy strips that are longitudinally welded using a continuous high-frequency electric current, without additional filler metals. The standard also covers tubes manufactured from pre-painted, lacquered, or anodized aluminium alloy strips, ensuring suitability for a range of finished applications.
Key Topics
- Dimensional Tolerances: This standard details permissible deviations from specified diameters and wall thicknesses, essential for quality control and interchangeability in manufacturing and assembly processes.
- Form Tolerances: Specifies limits for out-of-roundness and straightness, ensuring the tubes maintain correct form during and after production.
- Manufacturing Processes: Focuses on tubes produced by HF seam welding, a technique leveraging electric current for efficient, continuous production without filler metals.
- Surface Treatments: Addresses tubes made from aluminium strips that have been painted, lacquered, or anodized before forming, expanding the utility of these products in various industries.
Applications
Circular HF seam welded aluminium tubes compliant with SIST EN 1592-3:1998 are used across diverse industries where precise dimensional and form tolerances are essential. Typical applications include:
- Construction and Architecture: Structural frameworks, curtain wall systems, and decorative elements, owing to the lightness and durability of aluminium alloys.
- Automotive and Transportation: Manufacturing of lightweight structural and non-structural components, including tubes for fuel lines, air conditioning, and heat exchange systems.
- HVAC and Heat Exchangers: Suitable for condensers, evaporators, and other equipment demanding accurate tube dimensions and consistent surface finishes.
- Electrical and Electronic Applications: Where reliable form and fit are critical, especially for protective casings and support elements.
- General Manufacturing: Used in machinery, equipment frames, and varied industrial purposes that require uniform tubing with strict tolerances.
