    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard specifies the composition, property requirements and tolerances on dimensions and form for seamless round drawn copper and copper alloy tubes for heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators and desalination equipment. It gives guidelines for copper and copper alloy tubes supplied in the size range from 6 mm up to and including 76 mm outside diameter and from 0,5 mm up to and including 3 mm wall thickness.The sampling procedures and the methods of test for verification of conformity to the requirements of this European Standard are also specified.
