ACIPCO WELDED FABRICATION

In addition to the full complement of mechanical joint, Fastite®, restrained joint, and flanged fittings, ACIPCO makes many special welded fabrications to meet special construction requirements. By utilizing special fabricated outlets, the customer will eliminate many costly fittings and the number of joints to be installed, thereby reducing the material cost of the project.
