Tube processing

Tube processing includes the manufacture of diverse parts such as tube rivets, wire-end ferrules, spacer sleeves, pipe sections, crimp sleeves, and collar bushings from coils and straight-length tubing material.

Numerous tubular parts are produced in accordance with DIN 7340 or in line with individual customer specifications. In this process, all of the dimensions such as head shape, inner and outer diameters, length and wall thickness are fabricated to meet the requirements. The surface suited to the application is included in the scope of delivery as a matter of course.
