Is Air Handling Systems spiral pipe stronger than standard pipe?

Yes. Our spiral pipe is up to 20% stronger than smooth pipe systems of the same gauge due to the added 4-ply spiral lockseam reinforcement, providing approximately 2.5 times the crushing resistance.

Do you offer 10-foot lengths of spiral pipe?

Yes, we offer 10-foot lengths for larger runs to reduce connections. However, due to shipping size restrictions, these lengths typically require shipment by common carrier.

How do I connect spiral pipe sections?

We use a standard male/female connection method. A small-end coupling (COUP) is used to connect two sections of pipe. Connections should be secured with pop-rivets and sealed with silicone caulking for an airtight fit.

Q: How is 5-foot spiral pipe shipped?

Five-foot lengths of spiral pipe up to 16 inches in diameter can be shipped via UPS or FedEx Ground for fast delivery. Diameters 18 inches and larger must be shipped via common carrier.

Air Handling Systems manufactures premium Galvanized and Stainless Spiral Pipe in diameters from 3″ to 36″, utilizing 18, 20, 22, and 24 gauge galvanized steel and 20 gauge stainless steel. Engineered for superior durability, our pipe features a 4-ply spiral lockseam reinforcement that makes it 20% stronger than smooth pipe and provides 2.5 times the crushing resistance of welded or longitudinal lockseam pipe. This rigid design ensures a smooth interior for low friction loss and requires no painting, lasting years even in outdoor environments. Please note: All 22-gauge pipe measures 1/16″ less than the noted diameter on the inside (I.D.) for precise fitting.

Ideal for dust collection, industrial ventilation, spray booths, and clean rooms, our pipe is available in 5-foot and 10-foot lengths to suit your installation needs. Using 10-foot lengths for long runs can reduce connections by half, significantly lowering installation time and labor. For convenient logistics, 5-foot lengths up to 16″ diameter ship via UPS or FedEx Ground, while larger sizes (18″+) ship via common carrier. Contact us for pricing and fabrication lead times.

Spiral Pipe Gauge

We manufacture spiral pipe in 18, 20, 22, & 24 gauge galvanized metal. Stronger than other pipe – Our pipe is up to 20% stronger than smooth pipe systems of the same gauge, due to the added spiral reinforcement. No painting required, will last years outdoors.

Spiral Pipe Diameter

Available in 3-inch to 36-inch diameter in five foot lengths. It is considerably stronger than longitudinal pipe of the equivalent gauge. All 22 gauge pipe measures 1/16″ less than the noted diameter on the inside (I.D.). Example 6″ diameter is 5-15/16″ I.D.

Spiral pipe and fittings along with our flexible hoses will complete your piping system. Spiral pipe is commonly used in dust collection as well as other applications such as industrial ventilation, spray booth stacking, welding booths, paper trim, pharmaceutical clean rooms, etc.

Spiral Pipe is easily shipped. Five foot lengths up to 16″ diameter can be shipped via UPS or FedEx Ground for fast delivery.

Spiral Pipe Five Foot

Five foot lengths 18″ inch diameter and larger will be shipped by common carrier. Minimum required purchase amount of 40 linear feet. Please call for pricing.

Spiral Pipe Ten Foot

Also available in 10-foot lengths when you require large amounts for longer runs, call 800-367-3828 for more info.

How do you make pipe connections? We use the small-end (male-end) and large-end (female-end) method of connecting the components. This is similar to the way plumbing fittings are connected. Fittings and small-end couplings are male-end to slip into pipe and flexible hose. A large-end coupling (COU2) is used to make fitting-to-fitting connections. A small-end coupling is used to connect sections of pipe (COUP). Secure the connection with pop-rivets and silicone caulking. Wipe the silicone around the outside of the connection. By making a chemical bond, the silicone makes the connection airtight. Later if you wish to change your system, using a razor blade you can easily cut the silicone. We also have other options for connecting the components. There are Easy Connect Sleeves (ECS) and Inside/Outside Couplings (IO). For larger systems we recommend our Angle Rings (RING and RING-U). Also for an easy way of coupling flexhose you can use our Quick Flexhose Disconnects (QFD)
