Advanced stainless steel products
Sandvik will display its seamless tube
and pipe products at Tubotech 2013 in
São Paulo, Brazil, 1-3 October.
On booth 218 in Pavilion 1, the
company will exhibit products such as
hydraulic and instrumentation tubing
for critical applications in the oil and
gas industry, heat exchanger tubes
for the petrochemical industry, high
temperature tubes for processing
operations and hollow bars for
machining applications.
Used in industrial, engineering, food
manufacture, pulp and paper, chemical
and petrochemical plants, Sandvik
hydraulic and instrumentation tubing
is also extensively deployed in oil
and gas exploration and production
facilities, due to its resistance to
corrosion.
The tubes can be supplied in straight
lengths or coiled to best suit individual
applications.
In coiled form it facilitates the
installation of very long runs, reducing
the number of connections, ensuring
system integrity and providing easier
installation with reduced operational
and lifecycle costs.
As part of its comprehensive product
offering, Sandvik can supply complete
system packages, including welded tube
and pipe, fittings, flanges and welding
consumables, allowing complete single
sourcing.
Also on display will be Sanmac
®
stainless steel hollow bar with optimised
machining properties for reduced
tool wear and higher cutting speeds
contributing to increased productivity in
component manufacture.
Available in a wide range of sizes,
Sanmac hollow bar can reduce the cost
per component produced while freeing
up valuable machine time and cutting
material waste.
“Supplying advanced stainless steels
and special alloys to manufacturers and
process companies throughout South
America, our technical specialists can
also offer advice on tube applications
right across the industrial spectrum,”
said Angelo Martines, Sandvik tubular
products sales manager, South
America.
“Whether the seamless tubes are for
industrial heat exchangers, high
temperature applications such as
steel mills or the lime industry,
or even special alloys and
titanium for the aerospace
industry, our specialists can assist
and will be available on our stand at
Tubotech.”
