Smooth-Bore Seamless Stainless Steel Tubing
Seamless construction with no weld bead gives this tubing an interior with unrestricted flow. It is stronger than welded tubing and can be flared without splitting.
304 stainless steel has very good corrosion resistance.
316 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance.
Tubing that meets ASTM specifications adheres to international standards for dimensions and materials.

- Temperature Range:
304 Stainless Steel: -425° to 1500° F
316 Stainless Steel: -325° to 1500° F - Bending Method: Tube Bender
- For Use With: Natural Gas, Water, Oil, Air
- Compatible Tubing Fittings: Butt Weld, Compression, Flared, and Yor-Lok
General Purpose Aluminum Tubing
- Temperature Range: -450° to 400° F
- Bending Method: Tube Bender
- Compatible Tube Fittings: Flared
This tubing is lightweight with good corrosion resistance and weldability. It has magnesium and silicon added for strength. Tubing is seamless, which provides a smooth interior for unrestricted flow. It can be flared without splitting.
Low-Carbon Steel Round Tubes
Also known as mild steel, low-carbon steel is easy to machine, form, and weld. It's widely fabricated into parts that don’t require high strength, such as frames, supports, and conduit. This steel is manufactured to ASTM, SAE, or EN standards for quality and performance.

Easy-to-Weld 4130 Alloy Steel Round Tubes
- Yield Strength: See table
- Hardness: See table
- Heat Treatable: Yes
- Max. Hardness After Heat Treatment: See table
- Fabrication: Seamless
- Specifications Met: See table
Also known as chrome-moly steel, these 4130 alloy steel round tubes have low carbon content for good weldability. They’re often used for roll cages and frames. To increase their wear resistance, you can harden them with heat treating. These tubes have been manufactured to SAE and military standards for quality and performance.

High-Strength 2024 Aluminum Tubes
- Yield Strength: 42,000 psi
- Hardness: Brinell 120 (Medium)
- Temper: T3
- Fabrication: Cold Drawn
- Specifications Met: ASTM B210
While 2024 aluminum was initially designed for structural components in aircraft, it's now widely used when a high strength-to-weight ratio is needed, such as for gears, shafts, and fasteners. It offers similar performance to 7075 aluminum, but it’s not as strong.

Chemical-Resistant Tube Sleeving
Made of PVC, this sleeving resists chemicals, oil, and acids. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect.
Flexible Metal Conduit for Fiber Optic Cable
Protect fiber optic cable with this small-diameter conduit. Made of 304 stainless steel, it’s flexible enough to weave through tight spaces but strong enough to resist over-bending, so it won’t disrupt signals. Rated IP68, it’s dust tight and protected from prolonged submersion.
Conduit with a PVC cover is stretch resistant to protect cable from damage during installation. It also resists compression and impact for use in tight spaces that may shift over time, and resists UV light for use outdoors. This conduit does not resist oil or chemicals as well as conduit with a silicone cover.
Conduit with a silicone cover won’t absorb oil or chemicals, including the hazardous pulling lubricants commonly used in cable installation. Fiberglass braiding inside this conduit makes it stretch resistant, protecting cable while it’s being installed. The braiding limits conduit flexibility, giving it a wider bend radius than conduit with a PVC cover to provide cable with extra protection from over-bending. This conduit stays flexible at high temperatures, so it’s a common choice for guarding fiber optic cable near heat sources. It’s not as compression or impact resistant as conduit with a PVC cover.

Flexible Metal Conduit
Also known as FMC, this conduit offers the crush resistance of metal combined with flexibility to handle bends in tight spaces.
Zinc-plated steel conduit has a heavy zinc coating for corrosion resistance. Aluminum conduit is lighter than steel and has good corrosion resistance. It's often used to hook up motors and light fixtures.
Also known as antishort bushings, these grommets slide into the ends of conduit and types AC and MC armored cable to protect wire and cable from sharp edges.
