Hydraulic applications are piping systems designed to transfer high-pressure fluid or steam. There is a variety of hydraulic applications used in many industries. Industries like; Oil, Ship Hull Designing, and Machine Manufacturers. These are just some of the common examples of hydraulic applications in which steel tubing is needed.
Due to the abrasive nature of many fluids and their various temperatures, it is important to use the proper piping materials. Steel tubing which typically has a chemically treated surface (known as pickled carbon steel pipe), is recommended for hydraulic applications. Using steel tubing is important because other materials such as galvanized pipe will corrode over time. Steel alloy pipe should be used for all components of a hydraulic piping system. This includes couplings, flanges, as well as steel nipples.
Avoiding corrosion when constructing a hydraulic piping system is important. Having rust or debris from corroding pipes enter the material being transferred will have a severe negative impact on the quality. Corrosion can also lead to chemical spills. These are hazardous to the environment, wildlife, and population living nearby. The need for anti-corrosion and tight specifications are very common if you are supplying steel tubing and fittings.

Although the oil industry puts out oil production predictions in the United States, each month production in the oil industry changes. It is important to remember that projections can change as the year progresses. Why is this important to us? Well, it affects demand for pipe and pipe nipples and fittings. If and when the oil production goes up, states like; North Dakota, California or Texas, will be directly affected. In that case, Detroit Nipple Works will have the materials that companies in the oil industry need.
After a drop in oil production from August to September of 2016, oil production made its way back up. According to the EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment), oil production will stay at a steady pace with small increases and decreases majority of the year. However, towards the end of 2017 (September- December), oil production is projected to have a drastic increase.
With the increase of oil production towards the end of 2017, the oil industry will prepare for improvements in production. In order to maintain an improve oil production, it is important to ensure that pipelines are in good shape. High quality industrial piping materials are used throughout the year to make repairs and improvements to oil piping systems in the United States. For areas like North Dakota, upgrading their oil piping systems in winter can be a challenge.
For the oil industry, finding high-quality piping materials in the United States is important. Detroit Nipple works makes it easy for you to find the oil piping system materials needed to ensure that production runs smoothly and effectively. There are many different piping materials needed when it comes to U.S. oil production piping systems, such as:
Regardless of your needs, Detroit Nipple Works is ready to supply you with the highest quality piping materials in the US. The pipe and fittings needed for the oil industry are readily available from Detroit Nipple Works. We ship to states that are heavy in oil production such as North Dakota, Texas, New Mexico and California.
Texas led the Untied states in Oil Production in 2016, producing over 10.5 billion barrels of oil. The runner-up for US oil production was North Dakota with 5.7 billion barrels.
