Instrumentation tubing in aircraft to optimize measurement accuracy

Pitot Tubes

High-performance tubes are used in constructing aircraft pitot tubes, which are devices that measure fluid velocity, particularly in aviation and fluid mechanics.

Our pitot tube products are precision-engineered to withstand extreme aerospace conditions and enhance pitot tube performance and accuracy.

Precision-Engineered To Optimize Measurement Accuracy

The pitot tube is designed to measure the dynamic pressure of a fluid, which is the pressure exerted by the fluid due to its motion.

At Superior Tube, we have the expertise to custom-make tubes in high-quality alloys to exact requirements. This enables extended pitot tube product life and optimizes the accuracy of the pressure-measuring instrument.
