Product Overview


The High-Performance Aluminum Blue Pipe for Compressed Air sets a new standard for durability and visibility in compressed air distribution systems. Featuring a blue anodized finish combined with electrophoretic coating, this pipe offers superior protection against environmental factors while providing instant visual identification of compressed air lines in complex industrial setups. Constructed from high-grade 3003 aluminum alloy—containing 1.2% manganese for enhanced corrosion resistance—this piping system operates efficiently at pressures up to 232 psi (16 bar) across its full size range of ½” to 6” diameters . Compliant with industry standards for compressed air systems, it eliminates the rust and contamination issues common with traditional steel piping, ensuring clean air delivery to sensitive equipment.


Product Features


Enhanced UV and Corrosion Resistance

The dual-layer blue finish combines anodization with electrophoretic coating to create a surface that resists UV degradation, scratches, and chemical exposure. This treatment exceeds 1,000 hours of humidity resistance testing per ASTM D-1735 standards, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations .


Visual System Identification

The distinctive blue color provides clear visual differentiation of compressed air lines from other utility pipes (water, gas, hydraulic), reducing installation errors and improving maintenance efficiency in facilities with complex piping networks .


Smooth Interior for Energy Efficiency

With a surface roughness of less than 0.8 μm, the internal bore minimizes pressure drop by up to 20% compared to galvanized steel pipes. This smooth interior prevents particle buildup, extending the lifespan of downstream filters and equipment .


Lightweight and Easy Installation

Weighing 60% less than steel pipes of equivalent diameter, the aluminum construction reduces labor costs during installation. The material’s excellent weldability and compatibility with push-to-connect fittings further streamline setup processes .


Applications


This blue aluminum pipe excels in:


Automotive Assembly Plants: Identifiable compressed air lines for robotic tools and pneumatic systems.

Food Processing Facilities: Corrosion-resistant air supply for packaging and processing equipment.

Warehouse Distribution Centers: Outdoor and indoor compressed air networks for material handling.

Manufacturing Facilities: Color-coded systems for maintenance efficiency and safety compliance.

Construction Sites: Temporary and permanent air lines resistant to weather exposure.


FAQ


What makes the blue coating different from standard aluminum pipes?

The blue finish combines anodization with electrophoretic treatment, creating a protective layer that offers 300% better UV resistance than uncoated aluminum, making it suitable for outdoor applications without additional insulation .


What is the maximum operating temperature?

The pipe maintains integrity at temperatures ranging from -4°F to 176°F (-20°C to 80°C) at full operating pressure, with derated performance up to 212°F (100°C) for low-pressure applications.


Can it be used with existing steel pipe systems?

Yes, transition fittings are available to connect with standard steel pipes, allowing gradual system upgrades without complete replacement.


How often should the pipe be inspected?

Visual inspections every 6 months are recommended to check for physical damage. In harsh environments, annual pressure testing is advised to ensure continued performance.
