The HandyTube laser microscope image depicts height variation and measures high/low point averages. Blue areas are low, green mid-range and red high. Gauging tube surfaces to achieve a desired smoothness can be a painstaking and time-consuming process. Many tubing suppliers use profilometers to measure surfaces, but this technique involves a long setup time, [...]
Gov. John Carney ordered Delaware residents to stay at home and closed nonessential businesses in the state starting Tuesday, 3/23 at 8 a.m. He has deemed all ‘metals businesses’ to be essential so HandyTube will continue to be fully staffed, producing and shipping tubing for our customers! We are doing our utmost to protect you [...]

When it comes to manufacturing Ultra-Small Diameter (USD) tubing, the type of stainless-steel alloy you choose makes a difference. The most common alloys are the 300 series, which contain chromium, nickel, molybdenum and titanium. They can withstand high pressures and temperatures, are ideal for seamless coil-tubing applications and are available in a variety of corrosion-resistant [...]
Ultra-Small Diameter (USD) capillary tubing plays a critical role in improving the performance of liquid chromatography and related microfluidics instrumentation. Industry leaders in these fields require faster, more efficient equipment that can provide high-precision results. Thanks to USD tubing, this competitive edge is now attainable. USD tubing used in these applications must have a clean [...]
The Unified Numbering System (UNS) for Metals and Alloys is an alloy identification system which was jointly developed by the ASTM International (formerly the American Society for Testing and Materials) and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) to provide a means of correlating many internationally used metal and alloy numbering systems administered by various societies, trade associations and [...]
There are three primary styles of medium pressure tube fittings. They are differentiated by their end connections, each having its own advantages and disadvantages in specific applications. ⇒ Compression Fittings: Slide over the tube and use a ferrule design to coin and seal on the OD of the tube. ⇒ Butt Weld Fittings: Permanently joins to the [...]
