Precision steel tube · Manufacturers since 1956

Three ranges. One manufacturer. The exact solution for every application.

Each Delmàs range solves a different technical problem. None is better than another: each is the right one for its application.

Gama PREMIUM · Delmàs
Level 01 of 03
RANGE
PREMIUM

Bright surface. Direct chrome and zinc plating, no prior polishing.

When the tube is the visible part of a product or is going to receive a galvanic finish, its surface quality is everything. The PREMIUM range arrives with a pore-free surface from the mill — ready to go directly into the galvanic bath with no intermediate preparation.

Gama OPTIM · Delmàs
Level 02 of 03
RANGE
OPTIM

Full inner and outer diameter control. Bead ≤ 0.15 mm.

When an axle rotates inside the tube, a 0.5 mm bead generates friction, noise and wear from the very first cycle. OPTIM controls that bead to ≤ 0.15 mm and guarantees the exact diameter — including non-standard sizes such as 8.1 mm — so the axle fits with no play.

Gama PRECISE · Delmàs
Level 03 of 03
RANGE
PRECISE

Smooth bright mirror bore. The alternative to seamless tube.

The PRECISE range delivers a smooth, bright, irregularity-free bore — the same finish level as seamless extruded tube, without its cost or its lead times. The direct alternative for gas dampers, hydraulic cylinders and high inner-precision applications at 40–80% lower cost.

The same raw material. Three levels of transformation and control.

Standard tube controls only the OD with wide tolerance. Delmàs extends that control all the way to the bore — depending on what each application needs.

Find your range in 30 seconds.

Every industrial application has a specific technical requirement. Select your case to go straight to the right range.

PREMIUM

If the tube is visible or going to be chrome-plated, the answer is PREMIUM.

PREMIUM tube arrives with a bright, pore-free surface that allows direct chrome, zinc, brass or nickel plating — no polishing, no preparation. It eliminates a complete process step on your line and rejects from base tube imperfections.

And if I also need inner control?

If the tube is going to be chrome-plated AND an axle rotates inside it, the OPTIM range offers both. Contact us.
