This standard BS EN 755-8:2016 Aluminium and aluminium alloys. Extruded rod/bar, tube and profiles is classified in these ICS categories:

• 77.150.10 Aluminium products

This European Standard specifies the tolerances on dimensions and form for aluminium and aluminium alloy extruded porthole tubes with an outside diameter ( OD) from 8 mm to 450 mm (round tube, see Figure 1) or with a cross section contained within a circumscribing circle ( CD) from 10 mm to 350 mm (other than round tube, see Figure 2), supplied in straight lengths.

This European Standard only applies to extruded porthole tube for general engineering applications made in the following alloys:
