2. Final product to have outside tube diameter shall be 1.875″ +0.000″/−0.007″, and wall thickness shall be 0.012″ ±0.001″. (Drawing PF-444-161-25)
3. Overall cut-tube length deviation shall be within ±0.005″ from the nominal specified value.
4. Tubes shall be straight to a maximum deviation of 0.001″ per 1.0″ of tube length.

8. Surface finish of the final product shall not exceed 16 μin Ra (0.40 μm Ra) on the tube inner surface and shall not exceed 63 μin Ra (1.6 μm Ra) on the tube outer surfaces.
9. Electropolished per ASTM B912 if mechanical polishing was used to achieve required surface finish.
10. Passivated per ASTM A967 (corrosion resistance).
11. No operation causing contaminants to be embedded into vacuum surfaces shall be permitted. Grinding with resin-bonded wheels, emery cloth, crocus cloth, or similar abrasives on vacuum surfaces is prohibited.
