Drawn tubes - Import export

Durability and corrosive resistance are key criteria when it comes to precision thin wall tubing for industrial condensers. The tube mill at Superior Tube more than meets that requirement, and we supply products to a range of leading engineering companies. In the energy sector, our high quality stainless steel and nickel alloy condenser tubes are used for the cooling, heating or re-heating of fluids or gases within steam turbines that generate electricity. Condenser tubing products can be purchased from Superior Tube as seamless, welded or welded drawn tubes in a multitude of sizes ranging from 0.010” OD to 1.500” OD with wall thickness as light as .003” Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

Heat exchangers – used to cool, heat or reheat fluids, gases and air – are an area that Superior Tube specializes in. We offer a range of products specifically meeting the demands of companies fabricating shell and tube heat exchangers. Our heat exchanger tubes are used in a wide range of industries such as chemical processing, hydrocarbon processing and oil refining, alternative energy, nuclear power generation and aerospace. The stainless steel and nickel alloys we manufacture are high strength, corrosive resistant alloys that maintain optimum performance in extreme conditions. Superior Tube heat exchanger products can be purchased as seamless, welded or welded and drawn tubes in a multitude of sizes ranging from 0.010” OD to 1.500” OD with wall thickness as light as .003” Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

The welding process is one of the core ways in which we manufacture precision tubes. Our high-quality tubing starts off as a flat strip of metal. The strip is formed into a tube through a series of rollers and the join, also called the seam, is then welded together. Welded Processes Special non-destructive testing methods – including eddy current, ultrasonic and pressure testing - are used to ensure a consistent weld. Just like with seamless manufacturing, welded tubes can be drawn down by plug drawing or sinking. This method can be used to create very long lengths of coiled tube, these can also be measured during coiling using a laser measurement. The main welded tube manufacturing processes used are strip welding and cold drawing, but other important processes in between, or at the end of the drawing process, include Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.
