Aircraft tubing - Import export

Major engineering companies who design and manufacture aerospace engines rely on the strength and durability of tubing products made at the Superior Tube mill. This is due to our reputation for producing high quality, high strength, yet lightweight tubing. You’ll find our tubes at work within a variety of systems in aircraft including fuel delivery, fire suppression, drain lines and bleed air systems. Bleed air is high temperature, high pressure air taken from the jet engine and fed into various areas of the plane to be used for things like de-icing and cabin pressurization. We use high performance materials such as Alloy 321 stainless steel and Inconel 625 and 718 for applications that deal with extreme temperatures. Precision tubing for aerospace engines can be ordered in sizes from 0.250” outside diameter right up to 1.5”. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

Fine Tubes is a leading supplier of aerospace hydraulic tubes where they are deployed in the airframes and engines of both commercial and military aircraft. Our thin wall tubes are used to actuate flight control surfaces that bear heavy aerodynamic loads such as flaps and slats. They are also crucial components in aircraft landing gear and brake systems. Trusted by Major Airframe Manufacturers Fine Tubes is one of only a handful of tube mills worldwide qualified to produce the titanium tubing used for the 5,000psi high-pressure hydraulic systems of the Airbus family. Titanium provides a weight saving of 42% compared to the equivalent quantity of traditional stainless steel tubing. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

Superior Tube is a leading supplier of hydraulic tubes to the aerospace industry where our products are deployed in the engines and airframes of both commercial and military aircraft. Our thin wall tubes are used to actuate flight control surfaces such as flaps and slats, and are also crucial components in landing gear and brakes. The high quality tubes we manufacture provide the extra force required to move large control surfaces that bear heavy aerodynamic loads, and are critical to the safe operation of the aircraft. As such they have a high strength to weight ratio. Their effectiveness is important when it comes to aircraft operating costs, particularly where fuel consumption is concerned. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.
