The pipe, valve and fitting (PVF) industry moves at a fast pace. But fast-moving projects can throw a wrench into PVF installation when the project team becomes focused on deadline completion versus pipe material and layout. While every team wants to do a good job, pressure can overshadow some key considerations. Here are some common […]

Piping systems are critically important to buildings, industrial applications and infrastructure, and it’s easy to forget they exist once they’re installed. But there are a few things to keep in mind when designing a system that will ensure its longevity and success of a piping system, as long as it’s continually and appropriately maintained. Choose […]

While pipe is designed to withstand corrosion, extreme weather and other forms of wear and tear, it’s not meant to be installed and forgotten. Believe it or not, no pipe is perfect – and all pipe experiences some form of degradation in its lifetime. To that end, regular pipeline maintenance is a vitally important aspect […]

The concept of saving energy is a growing global trend, with the advent of hybrid and electric vehicles, solar and wind power research and ways of modifying home appliances and systems to both reduce energy costs and put less strain on the planet’s natural resources. But did you know that pipe can also play a […]

Pipe and the materials transported through it keep our society moving, day in and day out – but taking a look at the history of pipe gives insight into how the technology has evolved over millennia to become what we’re most familiar with today. From ancient methods of water transportation to modern materials and mechanics, […]

It may be standard in the industry with a wide array of applications, but what exactly is carbon steel pipe? As specialists in pipe, valves and fittings, All-Tex is committed to educating customers on the types of pipe that will fit their needs. Here, we give a breakdown of the facts and benefits of carbon […]

Metal pipe is the industry standard when it comes to pipe that is strong and can withstand high heat and pressure – but unfortunately, corrosion of pipe is something that metal materials can’t avoid. Stainless steel, carbon steel and other alloys that transport fluids in industrial applications are susceptible to corrosion, which in turn weakens […]

Older structures typically use water pipes made from iron, steel or lead. While the dangers of lead pipe for drinking water especially are a no-brainer, you may be wondering what the buzz about modern-day copper pipe is about. For commercial work, copper pipe should be considered in place of iron and steel. The benefits of […]
