Product Description

Advantages of SAE1045 Honed Tube

Choosing SAE1045 Honed Tube offers multiple benefits for distributors, stockists, and engineering companies:

High Strength and Durability

Medium carbon steel (SAE1045) provides robust tensile strength and toughness for demanding hydraulic environments.

Excellent Wear Resistance

Smooth bore surface minimizes friction and prevents premature wear of seals and piston rods.

Precision Dimensional Tolerance

Tight ID tolerance ensures accurate cylinder assembly and efficient hydraulic performance.

Extended Service Life

Enhanced fatigue resistance reduces maintenance costs and downtime.

Good Machinability

SAE1045 offers excellent machining and welding properties, making it adaptable for custom hydraulic cylinder manufacturing.

Cost-Effective Solution

Balances material performance with affordability, ideal for stockists and engineering procurement.


Production Process of SAE1045 Honed Tube

Each SAE1045 Honed Tube undergoes a strict and controlled manufacturing process to guarantee consistency and quality.

  1. Raw Material Selection

    High-quality SAE1045 seamless steel tubes are chosen for superior mechanical properties.

  2. Cold Drawing / Hot Rolling

    The tubes are drawn or rolled to achieve the required dimensions and structural integrity.

  3. Boring and Rough Machining

    Inner diameter is machined to prepare for precision honing.

  4. Heat Treatment

    Stress-relieving and normalizing improve hardness and mechanical stability.

  5. Honing Process

    Specialized honing machines refine the ID surface, achieving Ra 0.2–0.4 μm surface roughness.

  6. Skiving and Roller Burnishing (Optional)

    For tighter tolerance and mirror-like finishes when required.

  7. Dimensional Inspection

    Every tube is measured for roundness, straightness, and ID tolerance.

  8. Surface Protection

    Anti-rust oil coating is applied to ensure long-term storage safety.

This controlled workflow ensures each SAE1045 Honed Tube meets international standards for hydraulic applications.
