Overview
EN 2813:2018 (published as SIST EN 2813:2019) is a CEN aerospace material standard that specifies requirements for aluminium alloy AL‑P‑6061‑T6 drawn tube for pressure applications. The standard applies to drawn tubes with wall thickness a in the range 0.6 mm ≤ a ≤ 12.5 mm, intended for aerospace use (for example hydraulic and other fluid pressure systems). EN 2813:2018 was prepared under ASD‑STAN and is part of the EN metallic materials series for aerospace applications.
Key topics and requirements
- Material designation: Aluminium alloy AL‑P‑6061‑T6 (chemical composition limits for Si, Fe, Cu, Mn, Mg, Cr, Zn, Ti and other elements are specified in the standard).
- Form and production: Specifies drawn tube form and related manufacturing controls for pressure-service tubing.
- Dimensional range: Covers specified limit dimensions and thickness range 0.6–12.5 mm.
- Delivery condition: T6 heat treatment; delivery condition code U is used to identify condition on delivery.
- Testing and inspection: Refers to EN 2070‑5 for technical specification and test methods. Key inspections include:
- Mechanical properties (proof stress, tensile strength, elongation)
- Flattening, flarability and deformation-under-pressure tests
- Dimensional and marking inspection
- Batch uniformity and product qualification procedures
- Product qualification: Qualification programme and semi‑finished product requirements follow EN 2043 and the general organization set in EN 4258.
- Standards drafting rules: Prepared in accordance with EN 4500‑2 for aluminium alloy material standards.
Applications
- Designed for aerospace pressure systems, notably hydraulic and pneumatic tubing, fluid conveyance and structural pressure lines where reliable, lightweight aluminium tubing is required.
- Used in aircraft systems engineering, component manufacturing and assemblies that demand certified material, consistent mechanical performance and traceable inspection.
Who should use this standard
- Aerospace materials engineers and designers specifying tubing for pressure systems
- Manufacturers and suppliers of aluminium drawn tubing
- Quality, inspection and test laboratories performing material qualification and acceptance testing
- Procurement professionals and certification authorities ensuring compliance with CEN/ASD‑STAN requirements
