In-house certified technicians and a qualitative specification-assurance process that is second to none back every shipment leaving our Houston facility.
Across the Gulf Coast, one of the largest petrochemical complexes in the world keeps demand high for alloys that perform under pressure, heat, and corrosion. That is where Alloy 20 (Carpenter 20® (Alloy 20)) earns its place, and where P.A. Inc. supplies Houston with certified pipe, fittings, and flanges.
The reason Houston engineers keep coming back to Alloy 20 comes down to its metallurgy — exceptional resistance to hot sulfuric acid across a wide concentration range and resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and chloride stress-corrosion cracking. In demanding refining and petrochemical service, those properties are the difference between a component that lasts a campaign and one that fails early.
Our Houston customers put Alloy 20 to work across the demanding end of process service: sulfuric acid production and handling, pharmaceutical and plastics processing, pickling tanks and acid mixing equipment, and food, dye and synthetic-material production. Because P.A. Inc. fabricates locally in Houston, we can turn butt-weld fittings, flanges, and custom spools to the exact schedule and end-prep a Houston turnaround crew needs — and deliver to Pasadena, Baytown, and Deer Park and the surrounding region without the freight time of pulling material from out of state.
For Houston buyers working to tight ASME and API documentation standards, paperwork matters as much as metal. That’s why every order of Alloy 20 ships with complete, original Mill Test Reports and full heat traceability — backed by a service center that answers the phone around the clock.
If your Houston operation needs Alloy 20 Pipe & Fittings — whether it’s a single spool for an emergency repair or a full material package for a planned outage — call P.A. Inc. at 713-570-4900 for pricing, availability, and certified documentation.
