Tubes are used in equipment and machinery operating at low temperatures. The typical feature of steels that these tubes are made of is their low susceptibility to failure when used in low temperatures.

The tubes from 21,3 mm diameter and the wall thickness from 2.3 mm are supplied as hot rolled. The smaller diameter tubes are supplied as cold drawn and subsequently heat treated. Based on an agreement it is possible to deliver boiler tubes with dimensions and tolerances according to the dimensional specifications for precision tubes.
