Metallröhrchen

Metallröhrchen is a German term that translates to "metal tube" or "metal pipe." It generally refers to a hollow cylinder made of metal, used for a wide variety of applications. The specific type of metal, dimensions, and manufacturing process will dictate its suitability for different purposes. Common metals used for such tubes include steel, aluminum, copper, and brass.

These metal tubes find application across numerous industries. In construction, they are used for structural support, plumbing, and conduit for electrical wiring. The automotive sector employs them for exhaust systems, fuel lines, and hydraulic components. In manufacturing, they serve as parts for machinery, conveyor systems, and as components in scientific equipment. The aerospace industry utilizes specialized metal tubes for critical systems where strength and reliability are paramount.

The manufacturing of metallröhrchen involves processes such as extrusion, drawing, rolling, and welding, depending on the desired shape, size, and tolerances. They can be manufactured with seamless construction or with a welded seam. Surface treatments might be applied to enhance corrosion resistance, improve aesthetics, or modify their mechanical properties. The term itself is broad and encompasses a vast range of metallic tubular products.
