japanese steel tube specs

[bradphillips]

Extremely hard to find supplier in the US. I have to find DOM tubing as follows:
15.0 mm O.D., 2.25 mm wall, meets Japanese standard
STAM290GA or STAM35G-M.

U.S. suppliers I have contacted don't understand the spec numbers listed.

You may need to call around extensively for this, I did this google search and found a ton of sites,

I've found one good way to get specs is to ask your customer for a copy of the spec that they want you to use, Theres usually a copy w/ the buyer or QA manager.

There is likely a reference for the conversion I dont know where it is thou.

You can go to this website for American Spec. and convert if you can get a listing of the Japanese Spec.

Good luck Specs from different countries are hard.

Copperweld (ON or OH) and Seymour Tube (part owned by Sumitomo, US locations in TN & IN) would be my suggestions. Use the following links for more information on contacting them:
