Tube for hydroforming

[vtmike]

Hi,

I'm trying to find a SS304L 4" ID X .024" Wall seam welded or seamless tube for a hydroforming application. All the manufacturers I have talked to have been negative since the wall is so thin.

Does anyone here know of any manufacturers that can make tubing with these specs?

Thanks,
Mike

How long does it need to be before hydroforming?

I would not hydroform a weld tube of this wall thickness.

You might want to give FlowFrom a call as your specifications are withing their capability.
