The tube (1) has a tube piece made from textile-reinforced plastic with an area for receiving and attaching metallic flange components. A cylindrical profile is arranged within an area for forming a piston stroke, where the cylindrical profile includes a truncated profile with a transition area within the area for receiving and attaching the flange components. The cylindrical profile is continuously transferred into the truncated profile in the transition area, where all areas have a constant circumference and are reinforced by a wound textile surface semi finished product. An independent claim is also included for a method for production of a cylindrical tube.
