HYDRAULIC AND INSTRUMENTATION TUBING FOR THE PETROCHEMICALS AND OIL & GAS INDUSTRIES
 PEACE OF MIND
– THE PERFECT BALANCE
BETWEEN SAFETY AND
PERFORMANCE
Whether you’re operating an oil rig or petrochemicals plant, the need to boost
output without sacrificing safety is ever-present. In the big scheme of things,
your choice of hydraulic and instrumentation tubing might not seem critical.
But it does make a major difference in eliminating unnecessary risks.
No unscheduled downtime. No leaks. Zero accidents. And immediate support
if you need it. It’s what we call The Sandvik Peace of Mind Standard.

There’s more than one reason why Sandvik tubing service network that’s always on call, and always
