Greenville Tube specializes in short lead times

RathGibson, a manufacturer of welded, welded and drawn, and seamless stainless steel, nickel, and titanium tubing, offers seamless stainless steel tubing through Greenville Tube Co., located in Clarksville, Ark. A division of RathGibson, Greenville Tube offers high-quality, customized tubing with short lead times, frequently as little as a few days.

"The ability to respond to customers' quick delivery requirements has always been the hallmark of the Greenville Tube operation. Our responsiveness is based upon strategic raw material planning coupled with flexible production scheduling techniques," stated Harley Kaplan, Chairman and CEO of RathGibson.

Greenville Tube manufactures stainless steel and nickel alloy tubing that ranges in size from 1/8 in. to 1 in. outer diameter (OD), varying wall thicknesses, and lengths up to 65 feet. In addition to offering standard tubing sizes, the company can manufacture to any customized tubing dimension within this size range. Customized service also extends to order sizes; the company does not require a minimum or maximum tubing footage per order.

In order to meet prompt delivery requirements, the company has in place specific procedures to ensure fast and accurate order processing. From the moment an inquiry is received to the time of order placement, a technically-trained representative assures that all pertinent information is gathered and transmitted accurately into the production system. Special manufacturing and scheduling techniques are incorporated to decrease production time while assuring excellent quality. A variety of raw materials is kept on-site to expedite the start of tube fabrication. Finally, Greenville Tube adheres to strict delivery schedules to make certain that orders are received on-time.

Greenville Tube uses a complete line of stainless steel alloys for its seamless tubing including 301, 310, 316, 317, 321, and 347. In addition, products are offered in nickel alloys, such as 200, 400, 600, and 800. Other alloys, like Duplex 2205 and Super Austenitic 825 are also available.
