Centrifugally cast tubes and pipeline components Research & Production Corporation Trubostal Ltd is a Ukrainian manufacturer of centrifugally cast tubes and pipes, and a major producer of pipeline components, including pipe elbows. The company manufactures tubes and pipes in the OD range from 100 to 1,066mm, wall thickness range from 7 to 250mm, and lengths up to 6,250mm, in carbon, structural, high-alloyed, heat-resistant and temperature-resistant steels and alloys, as well as bi-metallic ones of different combinations of layers. The tubes are supplied as cast, after heat treatment and machining, and in the form of finished articles made according to customer specifications. Centrifugally cast tubes are applied in different fields of industry, such as columns and posts of heavy loaded constructions, port structures, bridges, viaducts, underground railway stations, railroad stations, multi-stock buildings, foundations, columns of oil platforms, piles with anti-corrosion silica-oxide coating, and tubular articles serving in sea water. In some cases where seamless tubes of large OD and thick WT are necessary, or if the tube is to be manufactured of hardly- or non-deformable steels or alloys, centrifugally cast tubes have no alternative among known processes of manufacture of tubes. Trubostal’s pipeline components are manufactured in the OD range from 20 to 630mm (seamless), up to 1,420mm (welded), using carbon and stainless steels in compliance with requirements of GOST and European Standards. Production of the pipeline components has been certified according to EN ISO 9001:2000.
