SAE J524 Tubes | Seamless Carbon Steel Tube Supplier

Q: Q1: What’s the difference between SAE J524 and ASTM A179 tubing?

A: SAE J524 is engineered for hydraulic systems, offering superior cleanliness and formability. ASTM A179, on the other hand, is primarily used in heat exchangers and condensers where thermal transfer is key.

Q: Q2: Can SAE J524 tubes handle high-pressure hydraulic systems?

A: Yes. SAE J524 tubes are seamless and have excellent mechanical strength, making them ideal for use in high-pressure hydraulic systems without the risk of leaks or structural failure.

Q: Q3: Do you offer custom lengths and sizes?

A: Yes, we provide tubes in custom sizes and lengths tailored to your specific project or application needs, ensuring perfect fit and performance across diverse industries.

Q: Q4: Is third-party inspection available?

A: Absolutely. We can arrange third-party inspections as per customer requests to ensure our SAE J524 tubes meet all specified standards and quality parameters.

Q: Q5: What is the typical lead time for delivery?

A: We stock standard sizes for quick dispatch and offer fast delivery on custom orders. Delivery time depends on order volume, customization level, and inspection needs.

What is SAE J524 Tubing?

SAE J524 is a specification for seamless, low carbon, steel tubes produced for hydraulic and fuel service. These tubes are cold drawn and annealed to obtain uniform mechanical properties, have a smooth internal surface and a certain amount of ductility that would allow severe forming operations, such as bending, flaring and manipulation, without failure of the tube structure.

SAE J524 tubing can be used for hydraulic lines, fuel systems, brake lines, and any number of critical applications where dimensional tolerances, cleanliness, and reliability are favored.
