Since 1934, Detroit Nipple Works has manufactured high-quality tubing products and supplied them to clients. This includes specialized products such as heavy wall tubing. This type of wall tubing has unique applications, making it perfect when all the conditions are met. But what is heavy wall tubing?
Heavy wall tubing, also known as thick-wall tubing, is tubing made specifically for thicker walls. During construction, companies often decide to increase the thickness of the wall if they are going to be running piping through it. This wall thickness adds strength and durability, making it suitable for various industrial applications. Thick-wall tubing has many advantages compared to standard tubes, such as withstand harsh conditions, high pressures, or mechanical stress.
Using heavy wall tubings can provide many benefits due to their ability to withstand harsh conditions, high pressures, or mechanical stress. As a result, this tubing can be found in a variety of industrial applications where the tubing may be subject to significant pressure, corrosion, or other harsh conditions. Industries such as oil/gas, petrochemical, aerospace, automotive, and construction commonly use thick-wall tubing for these qualities. The increased wall thickness allows heavy wall tubing to better resist deformation, rupture, or collapse under these challenging conditions.
The choice of thick-wall tubing can vary depending on the specific requirements of a project. Fortunately, our company offers this type of tubing in various materials. These materials include steel, stainless steel, aluminum, or other alloys, to meet the corrosion resistance and strength needs of your specific application. You can contact Detroit Nipple Works to understand what options are available for you.
Overall, heavy wall tubing is a critical component in many industrial and engineering applications where the integrity of the tubing is essential to the safety and functionality of the system.
Our engineering experts are here to help determine the best tubing for your specific application including the right materials and the proper wall thickness tubing. Get in touch with us and put our many years of experience to work for you.
Many might think that our nipple production is primarily for water or gas plumbing applications. Although that is probably correct, we do a large business as a nipple provider for industrial electrical projects as well.
Nearly every construction project requires some form of electrical work. This can include lighting, switches, hoists, or larger industrial electrical work. A major aspect of an electrical installation is ensuring that wiring is properly secured and protected. Also, during the construction process, electrical conduits, or steel nipples designed for electrical applications may be required. An electrical conduit is a steel pipe or tube with steel nipple in which wires are routed through to provide protection from elements.
An affordable option for creating industrial electrical conduits is to use steel tubing. Select the diameter of tubing needed, based on the number of wires being routed through, as well as the length of tubing. In addition, there are codes for creating conduits. 1/2 inch steel tubing is available in addition to the typical 3/4 inch steel tubing used.
To create your electrical conduit the process is pretty simple. After installing the handy box, you will connect the steel offset fitting. This provides a sturdy connection for your steel tubing. In addition, some electrical projects require a turning point. When this occurs, use a steel pulling elbow to complete the turn.
Detroit Nipple Works offers a wide selection of metal tubing materials to select from. Steel tubes, nipples, and steel fitting are all available any number of electrical applications. View our size chart to select the dimensions needed for your project. We fill orders in a large range sizes and quantities. Including bulk orders for large construction projects.
Finally, for more information, feel free to contact our tubing professionals to any answer questions you may have. Large or small orders can be shipped throughout the United States. In that regard, we want you to make us your go-to supplier for industrial electrical projects
Industrial Round Mechanical Tubing can be made from a variety of metals. Mechanical tubing can be made from carbon steel, alloy steel, and round carbon steel tubing. One of the first types of mechanical tubing is made from carbon steel and known as cold drawn seamless. The cold drawn seamless has an increased strength and tolerance over hot rolled tunes. Also, cold drawn seamless offers enhanced machinability.
The next type of industrial round mechanical tubing is the hot finished seamless. One advantage it has over cold drawn is it is usually cheaper. Also, hot finished seamless is usually used for applications that require high strength and thicker walled tubes. Drawn-Over-Mandrel (DOM) tubing is another tubing option. A DOM tube is a tube that is cold drawn electric resistant tube that is welded with all of the flash removed. In addition, DOM tubing is cost effective and available in a wide array of sizes.
4130 Chrome-Moly is a type of steel can be used to create race car roll cages or bicycle frames. It can be welded easily and considered to be stronger than other lesser steels. This type of steel is generally used in the aviation industry among others. Another type of round mechanical tubing is the continuous buttweld. These tubes are usually used for air lines, gas lines, and steam. The continuous buttweld is not meant for high pressure, bending, or coiling.
There is a large variety of tubes to choose from depending on the task at hand. Good thing that the experts at Detroit Nipple Works are always here to help you find the right tubing that you need to get the job done. We offer a large range of metal working services and supplies that can help you. Give us a call today at 1.888.698.7888 or get a quote now on any of your nipple or mechanical tubing needs.
