Vipul Pipes and Tubes, a Chennai, India-based manufacturing and supply company, is a leading global supplier of high-quality Aluminium Instrumentation Tubing to diverse industrial applications. Its aluminium tubing is renowned for its superior corrosion resistance, light weight, and high strength-to-weight ratio. Precision-designed for reliability, it is perfectly suited for applications in instrumentation systems, control lines, and analytical equipment. With a high focus on quality, sophisticated manufacturing practices, and prompt delivery, Vipul Pipes and Tubes offers reliable tubing solutions that satisfy the rigorous needs of industries like aerospace, chemical processing, and automotive.
Aluminium Instrumentation Tubing consists mainly of high-purity aluminium, usually alloyed with alloying elements such as magnesium, silicon, and copper for increased strength and corrosion resistance. It has superior formability, weldability, and thermal conductivity. The tubing normally has a tensile strength of 150–300 MPa and a yield strength of 100–250 MPa, depending on the temper and alloy. With elongation between 10% and 25%, it achieves good strength versus ductility. Its light weight and oxidation and chemical corrosion resistance make it very well-suited to precision fluid and gas transportation systems.
