Let our experts do the heavy lifting to ensure your air piping isn’t wasting money!
Although often overlooked, the piping system can make a huge impact on the total cost and performance of a compressed air system; the wrong piping can reduce air delivery/flow rates, increase energy consumption, and create corrosion that can damage downstream equipment & instrumentation or even contaminate end-products.
Plus, the total cost of air distribution also includes installation labor (typically 5 times as much as the material costs), wasted energy from leak-prone systems (often 20-30% after 10 years from start up), and increased energy consumption to compensate for pressure drops (7% for every 1 barg drop).
Non-Ferrous Aluminum Air Piping



Increased efficiency = Reduced operating costs & Increased air delivery
- Lowest Friction & Highest Flow Rates – Aluminum is significantly smoother at the microscopic level, which creates less pipe friction and therefore less pressure drop. This means that the system can deliver more air with less work!
Unrestricted by corrosion – Unlike ferrous metals, aluminum does not create corrosion that can build-up to create artificial pressure drops that restrict flow.
Leak-Free – All-metal piping and fittings come with a manufacturer’s 10 Year Leak-Free Guarantee and are much less prone to leaking over the long-term than Black Iron or Galvanized, which means less wasted air and less wasted energy!

115mm (4”) | 4,205 | 2488 |
168mm (6”) | 11,194 | 7292 |
Based on: 1 psi pressure drop per 100’, 125psi, 20 degree C, straight run.
Fast and easy installation = Reduced installation & labor costs
Quick-Connect Fittings – Push-to-Connect and Grooved Fittings make this the fastest and easiest system to install, without ANY welding, threading, or gluing. Also, the fittings are reusable!
Lightweight – Aluminum is ten times lighter than steel pipe of the same diameter, making it easier to handle and install than plastic without compromising any structural strength
Flexible for Future Modifications – The modular system design also makes future modifications & expansions a breeze, making layout changes easy and allowing air distribution to keep up with fast-paced operations.

Contaminant-free = increased air performance & end-product quality
Non-corrosive – Marine-grade aluminum delivers the cleanest, highest-quality air without the oxidation and corrosion of ferrous metals.
Protect Quality of End-Products – Eliminates the risk of degraded product quality from inserting a source of contamination between the compressor and the end-use
Protect Downstream Equipment & Instrumentation – Built-up corrosion in ferrous pipes can be dislodged and get stuck in downstream equipment, valves, & instrumentation, which can cause damage and/or disrupt operations.
