Company profile
Founded in 1954 and incorporated into Allied International Group in 2003, Tectubi Raccordi
was the first Italian world-leading manufacturer of steel buttwelding pipe fittings to be used in
nuclear and thermal power plants, LNG plants, oil&gas and water pipelines, offshore & subsea
and petrochemical plants. It is a top supplier of superpipes for the nuclear sector.

For over half a century the company has been collaborating with the most important EPC
companies, offering its products at the highest quality and manufacturing standards.
Its workers’ craftsmanship and experience and its technical service is key to meeting any client’s
request in terms of materials, design and international specifications.

During recent years, Tectubi Raccordi has developed three major facilities: in Castel San Giovanni,
Piacenza, Italy; Carbonara Scrivia, Alessandria, Italy and Tianjin, China, so as to increase penetration
in all target markets.

Tectubi Raccordi network

Tectubi Raccordi has its headquarters and main plant in Podenzano (total area 59,000 sq m), a
technologically advanced plant in Castel San Giovanni (total area 251,000 sq m) and a factory in
Calendasco (total area 8,800 sq m), all in the province of Piacenza, Italy.
• From December 2017, OMP-Tectubi Raccordi S.R.L. was merged by incorporation into
Tectubi Raccordi S.p.A. This facility (total area 50,000 sq m) produces seamless and welded
large-radius bends by hot induction and cold bending.

Other production units in Italy and in China complete the complete and increase the product range:
• Gieminox-Tectubi Raccordi Welded Pipes Division in Schio, Vicenza, Italy, which produces
heavy wall welded pipes, longitudinally welded clad pipes, bi-metal lined pipes.
• Tectubi Tianjin Fittings in Tianjin, China, which produces seamless and welded elbows,
seamless and welded tees, caps, barred tees and special products.

The Tectubi Raccordi factory in Castel San Giovanni

This plant, built in recent years, is situated in Castel San Giovanni, Piacenza, Italy, and occupies an area of 251,000 sq m It is
dedicated to the production of seamless and welded mandrel elbows in carbon and alloy steel up to 56”, reducing elbows up to
24” and all kinds of large size fittings up to 120” with a yearly capacity of 30,000 tonnes.

A mandrel machine, with a length of 66.5 m, width of 7 m and the max. working force of 1,800 tonnes, is aimed at increasing
production capacity by 60%. Unique in Europe, and probably in the world, this machine is able to deform a tube of 13 meters
and to produce elbows with a diameter up to 56” and a wall thickness of 2”, with a heating capacity of 850° for 11.5 tonnes of
material per hour.

The factory brings together aspects of industrial development, environmental protection and enhancement of the local community,
accompanied by constant research and innovation.

Bending division history

Tectubi Raccordi formed a newco with OMP Mongiardino in November 2009, called OMP
Mongiardino-Tectubi Raccordi Bending Division. Founded in 1968, OMP Mongiardino was
the first Italian company to manufacture by hot induction and cold bending large-radius elbows
for oil&gas pipelines and several types of industrial or civil plant.

It has created an industrial hub in Carbonara Scrivia, Alessandria, Italy, with a total area of 50,000
sq m, and has transferred there all the equipment from the former plant in Genoa.

In April 2016 Tectubi Raccordi completed its acquisition of OMP Mongiardino and the name
of the company changed to OMP-Tectubi Raccordi S.R.L.; finally, from December 2017, OMP-
Tectubi Raccordi S.R.L. was merged by incorporation into Tectubi Raccordi S.p.A.

The quality management system covers the full manufacturing process, from the arrival of the
mother pipes to delivery of the finished bends, and allows constant updating and traceability.

Products & target markets

Tectubi Raccordi Bending Division produces large-radius bends by hot and cold bending
and clad bends. Both hot and cold bending processes are used for: carbon and alloy steel for
moderate and elevated temperatures; high yield steel; carbon and alloy steel for low temperature
service; stainless steel; austenitic/ferritic stainless steel; nickel alloy; titanium alloy and aluminum
alloy.

The cold bending method, which originated from registered industrial patent used exclusively by
the company, delivers an identical structure to that of the original tube, so the product does not
need further heat treatment when the mechanical characteristics comply.

The bends are intended mostly for the oil&gas pipeline and power sectors, and can also be used
for civil engineering works.

TECTUBI RACCORDI 11
 TECTUBI RACCORDI Bending Division

Cold bending
The company’s patented cold bending process enables the manufacture of a wide range of
products such as bends with radius exceeding 4D and angles up to 180°, with a minimal thickness
reduction.

The bends can be in carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel, duplex and titanium, welded (SAW
or ERW) or seamless, with diameters ranging from 2” to 60”.

12 TECTUBI RACCORDI
Hot bending
The company has increased its capacity with the purchase of a new induction bending machine, Schäfer SRBMI 1400. This
machine enables the production of bends of diameter from 2” to 60”, bending radius from 250 mm to 10,000 mm and thickness
from 7 mm to 100 mm.

The machines, electronically interfaced, are provided with a control system which enables them to adapt to variations in load,
while keeping control over the temperature, reducing heat losses to a minimum. The material properties are retained accordingly,
even after the bending and heat treatment process, in accordance with applicable specifications.
