JIS G3445 Stkm11A Custom Size Steel Tube for Mechanical Components

Product Description

Product Description

State the STKM Grade and Manufacturing Route

JIS G 3445 specifies carbon steel tubes used for machine structures, including machinery, automobiles, bicycles, furniture and appliances.

Because the standard is broader than one manufacturing route, this page is deliberately limited to seamless tube. The order should identify the JIS edition, STKM grade, seamless method, dimensions, heat treatment, surface, tests and component application.

Product focus: round seamless carbon steel tube for machine structures. The product must not be described only as JIS G 3445 without also stating the required manufacturing route.

DIMENSIONS AND TOLERANCES

Control Fit for Japanese Machine-Part Drawings

Define the dimension that drives assembly, machining stock or finished component performance.

≡ OD  Outside Diameter  :        State the nominal size and ordered tolerance basis.
≡ ID    Inside Diameter     :       Control directly where component fit or machining stock requires it.

≡ WT  Wall Thickness      :       Confirm nominal wall and allowable variation before production.

≡ O     Roundness             :        Review for chucking, forming, sealing and component assembly.

≡ S     Straightness           :       Define the inspection method and application requirement on the order.

≡ Ra  Surface Quality       :       State visual, roughness or downstream-finishing requirements where needed.

INSPECTION AND TRACEABILITY

Link the STKM Grade to the Seamless Tube Lot

≡ Material identity                                  ≡  Chemical composition

≡ Tensile properties                               ≡  Hardness where required

≡ OD / ID / wall                                       ≡   Roundness

≡ Straightness                                        ≡  Surface inspection

≡ Roughness if ordered                        ≡  NDT if ordered

Inspection follows the ordered JIS edition, grade, route and purchase specification. Additional surface, dimensional or NDT requirements must be stated before production.

Global Precision Steel Tube Standards and  Product Network

Each page answers a different market and purchasing intent while sharing one precision-tube manufacturing framework.

Different standards define different scopes, grades, manufacturing routes and acceptance rules. Similar grade names or historical references must not be treated as automatic equivalents.The finished store structure can connect standard pages to processing and application products.

JIS G 3445 Seamless Machine Structure Tube Purchasing Questions

Q:  What does JIS G 3445 cover?

A:  It covers carbon steel tubes for machine structures such as machinery, automobiles, bicycles, furniture and appliances.

Q: Is every JIS G 3445 tube seamless?

A:  Do not assume so. This product page is limited to seamless tube, and the manufacturing route should be explicitly stated on the order.

Q: Which STKM grade should be used?

A:  Use the full grade and suffix from the drawing or engineering requirement. Grade substitution requires technical approval.

Q: What is the confirmed factory size range?

A:  The confirmed range is 15-70 mm OD and 1-14 mm wall, subject to grade, condition and tolerance review.

Q: Can tubes be supplied as cut or machined parts?

A:  Yes. Cutting, chamfering, drilling, threading and CNC turning can be reviewed from the drawing.

Q: What information is required for quotation?

A:  Provide the JIS edition, full STKM grade, seamless route, dimensions, condition, tolerances, tests, quantity and component use.
