- And MORE
Industries Served
-
Available services include:
- Bending services provide finished made-to-spec tubing for applications in a wide range of industries.
- Drilling/Piercing is used for applications that require mating parts, preparation for threading, drain holes, and connecting parts.
- Expanding, reducing, and flaring are employed when tubing needs to be connected to other components.
- Finning improves heat transfer efficiency by increasing the surface area of the tubing available for heat transfer. Sample applications include heat exchangers.
- Flattening is used for connecting parts. Applications often involve joining pieces in an assembly.
- Grinding improves surface RMS finish and removes metal to meet critical tolerance specifications.
- Honing is performed to achieve precise ID diameter dimensions. Sample applications include hydraulic cylinders.
- Notching, coping, and saddle cutting are used when making parts that need to fit together. For example, cuts in a tube to secure one tube to another without a gap. Sample applications include frame tubes.
- Swaging reduces the diameter of tubes to fit into a mating part.
- Heat Treating is used to change the mechanical properties (for example to increase/decrease ductility or increase/decrease hardness) of the tube to meet application critical requirements.
