Steel Pipe Suppliers for Pressure Systems

Across the world there are thousands of businesses listed as steel pipe suppliers, the problem is, this covers anything from the pipework we offer here at ValvesTubesFittings.com for pressure systems and handrailing projects to structural tube for construction or even steel pipe for piling.

The biggest issue you will face searching the web for steel pipe suppliers is quality, how do you know if what you’re about to install from your supplier is of the right quality for the work you’re undertaking. The fact is you have no idea unless of course that your supplier can offer you complete product traceability and the assurance of a quality management system written with the express purpose of ensuring that customers receive the service and product quality they are looking for.

If this is your expectation then you’ve already found one of the best steel pipe suppliers in the United Kingdom with ISO 9001:2008 certification, supplying quality steel tube for pressure systems to BS EN 10255:2004 and ASTM A106 Grade B.

This range of steel tube from one of your favourite steel pipe suppliers is known as quality tube although from my own perspective this would apply to all pressure pipe we sell to our customers, this range of quality tube comes with full 3.1b test certification and has the corresponding certificate number stamped or printed across each length supplied.

We can also offer different wall thicknesses from stock in some sizes to schedule 80 and on a longer delivery thicker pipe in schedule 160 and beyond. Other indicators of wall thickness are standard weight, extra strong, double extra strong, schedule 30 and schedule 60 to name but a few. Fittings relevant for use with quality tube are carbon steel threaded and welding fittings to ASME B16.11:2001 and welding fittings to ASME B16.9:2012.

Flanges most commonly associated with schedule seamless tube are to ASME B16.5:2013 coming in 150lb and 300lb from stock and higher pressures and temperatures are also available in very short delivery times.
