How Can Aluminum Pipe Help Me?
Quick Assembly
Transair’s aluminum and stainless steel pipe systems are easy to assemble and easy to
modify. Transair piping is easier to lift and handle than standard steel piping, and its
push-to-connect fittings secure connections with a simple push and twist. The fittings
eliminate the need for skilled pipe fitters, special tools, pipe preparation and threading.
Transair also eliminates the time needed for soldering and glue drying. And once the pipe
is pushed into the fitting, the connection is secure and ready to be pressurized. Lastly,
various technologies take into account the specific requirements of each diameter of pipe
and provide you with an optimum safety factor and easy connection.
Transair also offers an easy means of adding new drop or bypass onto an




existing length of pipe is an important consideration for any air pipe work




system. Transair quick assembly brackets are designed for this purpose,




without the need to cut the pipe. A swans neck built into the brackets retains




condensate water in the main line. Thanks to its small size, the Transair quick




assembly bracket facilitates new additions in the tightest places and can be




used for connecting horizontal branch lines and vertical drops.
Durable Equipment, Clean Air Quality
Transair aluminum and stainless steel pipe systems ensures a total absence of corrosion (self protection
by formation of aluminum oxide). The inner pipe surface consistently delivers clean compressed air, inert
gas, and chilled water. Transair also protects industrial equipment against water deterioration thanks to
its quick assembly brackets with integral upward loop. Transair prevents the problems caused by rust,
which affects galvanized steel systems. Due to consistent clean air/water, Transair aluminum pipe and
stainless steel ensues higher longevity of equipment and avoids frequent changes of filtration elements.
Optimum Efficiency of Machinery and Tools
The “full bore” design of Transair’s components, the low friction coefficient of aluminum pipe and stainless
steel, and the sealing characteristics of the system ensure optimal and constant flow throughout. Due to
its innovative technology, Transair gives better performance in terms of improved flow and reduced
pressure drop.
Example: A 63 mm Transair system gives a flow performance better than that of a nominal
(2 ½’’) galvanized steel system. Transair aluminum pipe ensures superior flow performance
over a longer period of time.
Example: Steel pipe can erode by a 40% factor over its lifetime. Transair maintains is smooth
bore through out its lifetime.
Overall Savings : reduction of installation, operating and commissioning costs
Transair aluminum and stainless steel systems are quick to install and ready for immediate pressurization. Components are removable and interchangeable and allow immediate and easy layout modifications. All components incorporate quick assembly connection, which enables Transair systems to be assembled much more quickly than galvanized steel or copper system.
Example: Galvanized installation: 6 feet per hour - Copper installation: 8 feet per hour - Transair installation: 45 feet per hour
All modifications or added extensions to a Transair system can be done extremely quickly and will meet your production requirements.
