Any industrial plant is as reliable as the components it is made of. Among them, fittings<\/u><\/strong><\/a> play a crucial role in ensuring the continuity<\/strong> of the lines, the joints safety<\/strong> and the entire system efficiency<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The choice of the most suitable fitting is not merely a technical issue, it is a decision that can make the difference in terms of performance, durability and maintenance costs.<\/p>\n

Whether it is a chemical<\/u><\/a>, petrochemical<\/u><\/a>, pharmaceutical<\/u><\/a>, food<\/u><\/a> or process plants, shipbuilding industry<\/u><\/a> or water treatment plants, Tecra offers a wide range of products to comply with the highest quality international standards and to meet any industrial requirement.<\/p>\n

Our products<\/h2>\n

FORGED FITTINGS<\/span>:<\/strong> the ideal solution for high pressure applications and particularly severe conditions. The denomination \u201cforged\u201d refers to the procedure used to obtain them that is through forging. They have a good corrosion resistance<\/strong> and durability overtime<\/strong>.
\nThey are typically used for high pressure plants, process lines, chemical\u00a0 and petrochemical plants, energy power plants and oil&gas applications.
\nThey can be supplied in different forms: elbows, tees, reductions, nipples ect.<\/p>\n

BUTT WELD FITTINGS<\/strong><\/span>: designed to create long-lasting connections<\/strong> between tubes ensuring the fluid maximum continuity<\/strong> and an excellent tightness<\/strong> reducing the risk of pressure drop. For these reasons, they are usually used for high pressure and high temperature plants as well as in process industrial plants and energy infrastructures.<\/p>\n

THREADED FITTINGS<\/span>:<\/strong> do not require welding, they are easy to install and often used in contexts where maintenance is frequently required. For instance, they are used for auxiliary systems, distribution networks, pneumatic lines and hydraulic circuits. Due to versatility<\/strong> and practicality<\/strong> they are the ideal choice for several industrial and civil applications.<\/p>\n

COMPRESSION FITTINGS<\/span>: <\/strong>are used to link together tubes with small diameters often used in the instrumentation<\/strong> field and for control and process lines<\/strong>. The connection to the tube is achieved via a mechanical joint with a double ferrule, eliminating the need for welding. This design simplifies installation and maintenance operations. They are used for instrumentation plants, technical gases lines, laboratories rather than chemical plants and automation\/control systems.<\/p>\n

Our aim is to guarantee reliable components<\/strong> to our customers contributing to the safety and operating continuity of the plants.<\/p>\n

Any solution is available in different materials<\/strong> (stainless steel<\/em>, carbon steel<\/em>, duplex<\/em>, superduplex<\/em>, nickel alloys<\/em> and special materials<\/em>). Some of them are ready in stock<\/u><\/strong><\/a>; while other ones are supply on demand to better satisfy customers\u2019 needs.<\/p>\n

We do not only offer a wide catalogue of products<\/u><\/strong><\/a>, we offer solutions<\/strong> and support our customers<\/strong> in the most suitable choice pursuant to the relevant regulations aiming at avoiding delays and expensive plants shutdown.<\/p>\n
