PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Though our core business is to manufacture and supply the full range of FORGED
STEEL FLANGES, our line of products and services is extremely complete:
1. FORGED STEEL FLANGES
(Full Range, 1/2" to 102")
FORGING MATERIALS OVERVIEW
ULMA Piping makes the quality of its forged products its number one concern.
We produce our forgings from a wide variety of materials to suit the varying needs of customers in many industries. Our customers
know they can rely on ULMA Piping when they need forgings and other pieces made from superior materials and at competitive prices.
ULMA Piping manufactures products from the following materials, among others:
CARBON STEEL
Carbon steel is an alloy of carbon
and steel, available in several grades
according to the amount of carbon
in the mix, from low to very high.
Forgings made from carbon steel are
known for their strength, ductility,
hardness, and impact resistance.
ALLOY STEELS
Alloy steels containing one or more
of a long list of alloying elements can
be used — chromium, molybdenum,
manganese and many more — with
and without heat treatment, to
produce forgings with a wide range
of performance-enhancing properties.
Consult us regarding your specific
needs.
STAINLESS STEELS
The addition of chromium and other
alloying
elements
produces
the
special properties of the steels in
the stainless steel range, including
excellent resistance to corrosion and
impacts, and high strength, among
other virtues. Many of these forgings
can be further hardened through heat
treatment.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE ALLOYS
High-performance or “superalloys” are
used in the most demanding applications,
where their excellent creep resistance
at high temperatures, good mechanical
strength and surface stability, and
resistance to the processes of corrosion
and oxidation are vital. A wide range of
forgings can be produced depending on
your specific performance needs.
NICKEL ALLOYS
Inconel® and Hastelloy® are but two
common examples of the wide variety of
alloys containing nickel. The increased
ductility that nickel brings to alloys makes
it ideal for many applications. We can offer
you forgings made of an extensive range
of nickel alloys.
MONEL® ALLOYS
Monel® is the trademark name applied to
a series of nickel and copper alloys. These
alloys are extremely resistant to corrosion
and acids, and are therefore highly prized
in marine applications and environments
where there will be exposure to harsh
acids and corrosive media.
We have the highest in-house production capacity in the world in our business.
We produce over 5.000.000 pieces annually and our annual production capacity
exceeds 100.000 metric tonnes.
We boast unrivalled:
FORGING LINES
Mechanical-hydraulic robotic presses,

UNBEATABLE QUALITY
CERTIFICATION
AND TESTING
ULMA Piping conducts both destructive and
non-destructive tests as required.
We have four kinds of Level II-III nondestructive testing (NDT) at ULMA Piping:
Ultrasonic, magnetic particle, liquid penetrant,
and x-ray. These tests do not harm the forgings
and can be carried out on final pieces.
Our systems, processes and operations
are certified to ISO 9001 standards,
as awarded by LLOYD’S REGISTER
QUALITY ASSURANCE.
They are reviewed continuously and
audited by internal quality audits and
third-party inspection agencies.
The reddish-orange tone of this
naturally malleable metal is familiar
to everyone, having been in use for
thousands of years. It is prized in
alloys for adding to impact resistance,
strength and hardness.
ALUMINUM
Aluminum is widely used in many
industries, and readily alloys with
other metals. Its corrosion resistance
is excellent, and in alloys it can greatly
improve mechanical properties.

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Though our core business is to manufacture and supply the full range of FORGED
STEEL FLANGES, our line of products and services is extremely complete:
1. FORGED STEEL FLANGES
(Full Range, 1/2" to 102")
FORGING MATERIALS OVERVIEW
ULMA Piping makes the quality of its forged products its number one concern.
We produce our forgings from a wide variety of materials to suit the varying needs of customers in many industries. Our customers
know they can rely on ULMA Piping when they need forgings and other pieces made from superior materials and at competitive prices.
ULMA Piping manufactures products from the following materials, among others:
CARBON STEEL
Carbon steel is an alloy of carbon
and steel, available in several grades
according to the amount of carbon
in the mix, from low to very high.
Forgings made from carbon steel are
known for their strength, ductility,
hardness, and impact resistance.
ALLOY STEELS
Alloy steels containing one or more
of a long list of alloying elements can
be used — chromium, molybdenum,
manganese and many more — with
and without heat treatment, to
produce forgings with a wide range
of performance-enhancing properties.
Consult us regarding your specific
needs.
STAINLESS STEELS
The addition of chromium and other
alloying
elements
produces
the
special properties of the steels in
the stainless steel range, including
excellent resistance to corrosion and
impacts, and high strength, among
other virtues. Many of these forgings
can be further hardened through heat
treatment.
HIGH-PERFORMANCE ALLOYS
High-performance or “superalloys” are
used in the most demanding applications,
where their excellent creep resistance
at high temperatures, good mechanical
strength and surface stability, and
resistance to the processes of corrosion
and oxidation are vital. A wide range of
forgings can be produced depending on
your specific performance needs.
NICKEL ALLOYS
Inconel® and Hastelloy® are but two
common examples of the wide variety of
alloys containing nickel. The increased
ductility that nickel brings to alloys makes
it ideal for many applications. We can offer
you forgings made of an extensive range
of nickel alloys.
MONEL® ALLOYS
Monel® is the trademark name applied to
a series of nickel and copper alloys. These
alloys are extremely resistant to corrosion
and acids, and are therefore highly prized
in marine applications and environments
where there will be exposure to harsh
acids and corrosive media.
We have the highest in-house production capacity in the world in our business.
We produce over 5.000.000 pieces annually and our annual production capacity
exceeds 100.000 metric tonnes.
We boast unrivalled:
FORGING LINES

UNBEATABLE QUALITY
CERTIFICATION
AND TESTING
ULMA Piping conducts both destructive and
non-destructive tests as required.
We have four kinds of Level II-III nondestructive testing (NDT) at ULMA Piping:
Ultrasonic, magnetic particle, liquid penetrant,
and x-ray. These tests do not harm the forgings
and can be carried out on final pieces.
Our systems, processes and operations
are certified to ISO 9001 standards,
as awarded by LLOYD’S REGISTER
QUALITY ASSURANCE.
They are reviewed continuously and
audited by internal quality audits and
third-party inspection agencies.
The reddish-orange tone of this
naturally malleable metal is familiar
to everyone, having been in use for
thousands of years. It is prized in
alloys for adding to impact resistance,
strength and hardness.
ALUMINUM
Aluminum is widely used in many
industries, and readily alloys with
other metals. Its corrosion resistance
is excellent, and in alloys it can greatly
improve mechanical properties.
