Medical Tubing Manufacturing Methods

Welded & Drawn Precision Metal Tubing

Accu-Tube has nearly 50 years of experience providing worldwide, industry-leading companies with welded and drawn precision stainless steel tubing. Selecting the right tube-drawing and manufacturing method is crucial in providing product success.

As a leading tube manufacturing specialist, we leverage several tube-drawing methods. We can also create custom sizes, tempers, and finishes to ensure high levels of precision that deliver successful outcomes.

Tube sinking reduces the diameter of the tube without the use of a mandrel inside the tube.

Benefits:

• No ID tooling
• ID remains clean
• Lower complexity

Floating plug drawing uses a “floating” mandrel that is not anchored to shape the inner diameter of the tube.

Benefits:

• Best dimensional control
• Smooth ID
• Drawing in coil
