Our original business, known as Allied Tube & Conduit, developed an in-line galvanizing technique (Flo-Coat) in which zinc is applied as tube and pipe are formed. The Flo-Coat galvanizing process, a patented technique, was the foundation for our low-cost manufacturing of fabricated metal products. In 1960, the company began operation with a single tube mill ?? producing half-inch electrical conduit at the unheard-of rate of two feet per second.50 Years of Growth Over the next 50 years, the company diversified, becoming an industry leader through growth, acquisitions and innovation. We now design and manufacture galvanized steel tubing and pipe products that include electrical conduit, fire sprinkler pipe, light gauge steel tube and fence pipe sold under the brand names Allied Tube & Conduit and Tectron Tube.
