Production and Quality Ensurance of Titanium Tubes and Pipes
The production of titanium tubes and pipes involves several different processes. Depending on specifically given size and alloy designation, the tubes and pipes can be hot / cold rolled, drawn, extruded or even deep bore drilled. We are offering both seamless and welded titanium tubing and piping in various alloys, multiple cross-section and extensive range of dimension. Our tubes and pipes can be used as heat exchangers that endure sophisticated corrosive environments, pipeline system withstand harsh gas and liquid in chemical plant, exhaust pipe to reduce the weight of automobile and motorcycle, or aerospace components to utilize their extraordinary performance at extreme temperatures.
Our commitment to quality and excellence is evident in our fully certified titanium tubes and pipes. We take pride in adhering to strict quality control policies that ensure each tube meets the highest industry standards.
- Full Certification: All our titanium tubes and pipes come with comprehensive certifications, providing detailed information about the material’s chemical composition, mechanical properties, and compliance with international standards. Our products are certified to meet or exceed ASTM, ASME, and other relevant specifications.
- Traceability: We maintain a robust traceability system throughout the production process. From the sourcing of raw materials to the final product, each step is carefully documented and tracked. This allows us to trace the origin of every tube and pipe, ensuring complete transparency and accountability.
- Record-Keeping: Our meticulous record-keeping practices enable us to maintain accurate documentation for each product batch. This includes details about the manufacturing processes, inspection results, and any additional testing conducted. These records serve as valuable references for quality assurance and future reference.
