Capillary Tubes

Capillary Tubes

Capillary Tubes Capillary Tubes are precision-engineered tubing products with extremely small diameters designed for applications requiring high accuracy, controlled flow, and superior surface finish. These tubes are widely used in medical, instrumentation, refrigeration, and chemical industries where micro-level precision and reliability are essential.

Made from high-quality stainless steel, nickel alloys, titanium, and other specialty materials, capillary tubes offer excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and durability. Their tight dimensional tolerances and smooth internal surfaces make them indispensable for sensitive applications like chromatography, thermocouples, and hydraulic systems.

Moksh Tubes & Fittings LLP, we produce capillaries to ASTM, ASME, and international standards, ensuring consistency, quality, and performance. Our advanced manufacturing techniques, including cold drawing, bright annealing, and precision polishing, ensure capillary tubes meet the most demanding industry requirements.
