E195E235E275E355

+C Hard. No final treatment after final cold drawing.

+LC Soft. Final heat treatment is followed by a suitable

drawing pass (limited reduction of area).

+SR Stress Relieved. After final cold drawing, the tubes

are stress relieved in a controlled atmosphere.

+A Annealed. After final cold drawing, the tubes

are annealed in a controlled atmosphere.

+N Normalized. After final cold drawing, the tubes

are normalized in a controlled atmosphere.
