• All-metal system — Safer and more reliable than plastic
• High pipe-to-fitting engagement — Increases structural integrity
• Corrosion-resistant — Minimizes turbulence and pressure loss
• Recyclable piping material — Aluminum piping material can be recycled
• Lightweight and easy to handle — Up to 90% lighter than comparable steel piping
• Easy to install/modify — For faster, simpler setups and changes
Lowers Cost Of Ownership
The Simplair® piping system’s high-quality, marine-grade aluminum construction delivers cost savings at all stages of ownership. Significantly lighter weight than competing steel systems, Simplair® is the more economical choice at the time of purchase. Quick-connect fittings combine with lightweight piping without the need for expensive tools or trained installers, so assembly is faster and costs less. The Simplair® system’s pipes are stronger than plastic and more corrosion resistant than steel and its leak-free fittings reduce the need for routine maintenance and lower the likelihood of unexpected repairs. These features combine to create a superior piping design that maximizes system efficiency for the lowest total cost of ownership.
Minimizes Contamination and Turbulence
A piping system with cleaner interior surfaces helps promote the smooth, laminar flow of the fluid it transports, reducing
turbulence and associated pressure losses. The Simplair® system’s marine-grade aluminum construction provides superior
corrosion resistance to keep pipe interior surfaces free of the oxidation-based contamination that can occur with steel systems — contamination that can not only cause turbulence and pressure loss, but also cause problems if corrosion-related debris enters sensitive equipment.
Provides Solutions for Virtually Any Need
Simplair® piping is available in a wide range of outer diameter sizes from 3/4" to 8" (20 mm to 220 mm) to serve nearly any application. High-quality, all-metal, easy-to-install fittings make it easy for users to design and construct their own systems without the need for professional installers.
