Oil & Gas Bar
Engineered for Extreme Environments
Speciality Steels for the Oil & Gas Industry
Within the Oil & Gas sector we produce the widest single range of steel types ranging from basic CrMo products such as AISI 4140, through more capable NiCrMo grades such as AISI 4330V to corrosion resistant stainless steel such as SF 13/2/5.
