This is not a pipe.
It’s actually an entry ticket to huge markets. Because what
you’re looking at is a longitudinally welded pipe that’s been
normalized to oil and gas pipe standards. But there’s a catch.
Normalizing isn’t easy. Especially for today’s gauges and alloys. It
demands expertise in metallurgy, control software and precise
heat delivery.
The good news however is that these are areas in which we
specialize—making us a leader in pipe weld-seam normalizing.
Also, with more than 50 years’ induction heating experience,
we’re experts at using technology to open new commercial opportunities for our customers.
EFD Induction is Europe’s no 1—and the world’s no. 2—
induction company. Our systems are used to weld, normalize,
anneal, harden, temper, braze, melt, forge, bond, cure and pre-and post-heat.
So whatever your pipe normalizing needs, you can turn to us
for a solution. And since we’re present around the world, that
solution is probably closer than you think. Contact us today.
There’s a vast oil and gas pipe market out there. We’ll help you
get a share of it.
