Seamless Drawn
Seamless Drawn aluminium tube is a high integrity product, specified for sizes, dimensional tolerances and mechanical properties that cannot be obtained as extrusions. It offers improved tolerances compared with extrusion and for some alloy grades is the method of achieving specific mechanical properties. Additionally the flexibility of the process means that Spartal can offer quantities, from a few lengths to thousands of metres. While dimensional tolerances and mechanical properties are covered by international standards (EN/ASTM etc.) tubes can be supplied to restricted tolerances by agreement to fulfill specific product needs.
Sizes available are from 4mm to 170mm (1/8 inch to 6 ½ inch) and in thicknesses from .25mm to 12mm,(0.010 inch to 0.475 inch) depending upon the diameter. Tubes are supplied in a wide range of alloys in 1xxx, to 7xxx.
Spartal is the only UK producer of large diameter Drawn tube and the company can offer large diameter tube in thicknesses ranging from 0.7mm to 12mm , in mill lengths of up to 7M or as cut pieces.
At the other end of the size spectrum Spartal has a comprehensive range of tools for small diameter tubes and shapes (this includes all the tooling acquired with Thames Tube) and offers sizes down to 4mm x 0.25mm as well as squares rectangles and ovals. These can be supplied in lengths up to 6M, coils and precision cut pieces.
Porthole Drawn
Porthole Drawn tube is manufactured by Spartal in Diameters from 4mm to 170mm (1/8 inch to 6 ½ inch) and in thicknesses from .25mm to 12mm,(0.010 inch to 0.475 inch) depending upon the diameter. Tubes are supplied in a wide range of alloys in 1xxx, ,3xxx, 5xxx, and 6xxx grades.
Spartal is the only UK producer of large diameter Porthole Drawn tube and the company specialises in large diameter thin wall tubes. It can offer large diameter tube in most alloys with thicknesses typically ranging from 0.7mm to 12mm. Tube can be supplied in mill lengths of up to 7M or as cut pieces.
At the other end of the size spectrum Spartal has a comprehensive range of tools for small diameter tubes and shapes ( it includes all the tooling acquired with Thames Tube) and offers sizes down to 4mm x 0.25mm as well as squares rectangles and ovals. These can be supplied in lengths up to 6M, coils and precision.
Because of the flexibility of the process Spartal can offer quantities ranging from a few lengths to thousands of metres supplying to international standards EN/ASTM or to customer specific requirements on tolerances and mechanical properties.
Waveguide
Spartal have available Standard Rectangular Waveguide in Aluminium Alloy 6061.Most sizes from WR284(WG10) to WR 28 (WG22) are carried in stock in lengths of 3 M and 3.66M and can be shipped within a matter of days from order.
Additionally Spartal offer Reduced height, Thick wall, Thin wall and Circular Waveguides in Aluminium Alloy 6061 and Standard waveguide in Aluminium 1200.
We also work closely with our American distributor Metal Associates who stock our products . We are also able to supply from Standard Waveguide in OFE Copper and 90/10 Brass in most sizes.
