The aircraft industry was the first and is a continuing market for Western Pneumatic. Applications include structural, hydraulic and pneumatic systems in commercial, millitary and private aircraft. Sizes range from 11" diameter titanium ducting to ¾" diameter high temperature applications.

 Long life and de­pendability are assured by welded and drawn stain­less steel jackets for submersible pumps in deep wells and in fuel dispensing tanks.

Our tubing was part of the early Gemini and Apollo vehicles, is on the moon, and on the Venus and Mars probes. Enterprise and Columbia carry Western Pneumatic tubing into orbit. The space sta­tion FREEDOM also will have Western Pneumatic tub­ing on board.

Stainless steel tubing 8" in diameter by .020" wall, in 42-foot lengths, solved a corrosion prob­lem in a rotary irrigation system in the Libyan desert.

Design technology must be followed by production technology. Processes have been de­veloped for forming and shaping tubing to precise con­figurations - and to the exacting specifications required by nuclear research facilities. Transition sections with round ends and fluted or shaped tube bodies have been designed and produced.

General experience translated readily into economical solutions for food industry prob­lems. Close tolerance rectangular cooker tubes for lunch meats assure accurate package weight. Winery processing tubing, buttering cylinders, polished tub­ing for candy making, and hexagonal tubing for sau­sage slicers are representative of products for the in­dustry.

 Tantalum/Zircaloy/titanium in heaters and heat exchangers are used in the petro­chemical processing industry. Single wall or clad-over steel for strength, the corrosion resistant properties of costly alloys are made available in diameters to 11".
