Aerospace - Import export

We deliver precision tubes specially engineered for aerospace engines that perform in the most extreme pressures and temperatures. Trusted by Major Engine OEMs Our aerospace engine tubes are trusted by major OEMs to operate in a variety of critical aircraft engine systems including fuel delivery, fire suppression, thrust reverser, drain lines, and bleed air systems. 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.

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.

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.

HPM® 600 is well suited for severe corrosive environments and is oxidation resistant through 2150°F. Such as, metal diaphragms for aerospace sensors, flexible metal foil heaters and metal diaphragms for burst discs. The strength can be increased by cold working. The material has good elevated strength retention through 800°F. The alloy is readily formed in the annealed temper, and can be joined by the standard welding, brazing and soldering processes. Available Sizes: HPM® 600 is available from Hamilton Precision Metals as strip product in thicknesses from 0.0005” to 0.050” (0.0127 mm to 1.27 mm) and width up to 12” (304.8 mm). It is also available in foil as thin as 0.000100” (0.00254 mm) in widths of 4.0” (101.6 mm) maximum. The material conforms to ASTM B168, AMS 5540, MIL N 23228 and UNS N06600.

Precision C is a heat treatable Nickel-Iron Alloy used in critical diaphragm applications, such as, metal diaphragms for aerospace sensors and burst discs. The alloy composition provides a unique constant elastic modulus value over a temperature range of -50ºF to 150ºF. Precision C can be readily formed from the annealed temper. It has a work hardening rate similar to austenitic stainless steel. The material can be joined by TIG, EB, and resistance welding as well as by brazing and soft solder technique. The heat treatment of Precision C can be adjusted to produce the desired value for the thermoelastic coefficient at or near zero. The elevated strength in the heat treated temper results in low mechanical hysteresis and low drift. Available Sizes: Precision C is available from Hamilton Precision Metals as strip product in thickness from 0.0005” to 0.040” (0.0127 mm to 1.016 mm) and widths up to 8.0” (203.2 mm). The material conforms to ASM 5221 and UNS N09902.
