Precision Tubing for Demanding Industries

Our manufacturing capacity exceeds 50,000 tonnes per year. We operate advanced ERW mills, edge profiling systems, and laser cutting lines capable of producing tubes from 12mm to 152mm in diameter. This capability allows us to serve both high-volume production and specialist engineering with equal efficiency.

We’re a trusted supply partner for the following key industries:

ERW Tube Dimensions

Round 19mm OD up to 76.20mm OD
Square 16mm x 16mm up to 60mm x 60mm
Rectangle 25mm x 15mm up to 80mm x 40mm
Flat Sided Oval 25mm x 12mm up to 80mm x 40mm
Special Section As required

 

Aerospace

Weight, precision, and consistency are vital in aerospace applications. We manufacture tubing for structural frameworks, maintenance equipment, and support structures where safety and dimensional accuracy cannot be compromised.

Agriculture

We support agricultural OEMs, fabricators, and livestock operators with tube that resists ammonia, moisture, and heavy wear. Applications range from penning and feed systems to greenhouses and equipment frames.

Automotive

From subframes to EV battery enclosures, we support OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers with tight-tolerance tubing that delivers both formability and lifecycle performance. Tube laser cutting allows for ready-to-fit assemblies straight from our production line.

Construction

Our ERW tube is used extensively in commercial and residential construction, from scaffold systems to architectural steelwork. We also support prefabricated builds, modular housing, and infrastructure projects requiring reliable supply under tight deadlines.

Defence

We supply defence contractors and MOD-aligned projects with tubing engineered for durability under pressure—used in deployable shelters, containment systems, and high-security infrastructure. MAGNAtube® offers a robust option where abrasion or climate extremes are a concern.

Renewable Energy

We supply tubing for solar farms, wind turbines, and hybrid systems. Our corrosion-resistant MAGNAtube® is particularly suited to exposed or coastal energy sites where longevity matters as much as strength.

We Serve an Even Broader Network

Beyond the headline sectors, our tubing plays a vital role in dozens of industries where quality and consistency are essential but rarely in the spotlight.

Our customers include:

  • Rail infrastructure contractors
  • Yellow goods and heavy plant manufacturers
  • Oil & gas engineering teams (both onshore and offshore)
  • Material handling and conveyor system builders
  • Hydraulic system manufacturers
  • Furniture, display, and appliance fabricators
  • Tube slotters, manipulators, and component engineers
  • Boiler and thermal system assemblers
  • Medical and health equipment suppliers
  • Sports and leisure facility developers
  • Marine contractors and coastal structure fabricators
  • Transport and trailer system builders
  • Stockholders and national distributors

Our tubing can be found in shop fittings, sports enclosures, medical units, rail carriages, and conveyor lines often performing silently, but always reliably.
