    Sizes available from: 10mm to 150mm with specials available to order.

    Note:  When specifying tubes and pipes for a particular application, it is advisable to consider a number of factors, such as the flow rate required, the maximum flow velocity for the liquid and the pressure losses due to pipe friction and restrictive plant such as heat exchangers and valves. 

    Other important issues for consideration include the corrosive nature of your media and also it is advisable to consult tables for the “Theoretical Burst Pressures” and Temperature De-rating Factors” before deciding on the final specification.
