PEASA was founded in Mexico in 1961 to produce carbon steel tubing, and later developed products such as flux tube, welded tube, fence tube, conduit tube, DOM tube (drawn over mandrel), aluminised and stainless steel tube. Today, PEASA produces quality drawn over mandrel tubing, and offers customers cut to length services (from 24mm up to 500mm). The company is part of a wide organisation based in Mexico (GIM Grupo Industrial Mexicano), which integrates nine manufacturing, commercial and service companies mostly related to plastics and steel products. The company’s modern manufacturing facility is located in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, and offers state-of-the-art welding, forming and cutting technology. PEASA has invested millions of dollars in two laser welders that allow the company to reduce margins of error to a minimum. Steel tubes are manufactured with cold or hot rolled steel in grades SAE-1006 up to 1020 Standards ASTM-A513 and DIN 2393. Tubes manufactured under the standards ASTM A-178 and A-214 are welded, under A-179, A-192 and A-210 are seamless, and under standards 213 in grade T-22 are carbon steel (seamless).
