Superior Tube, the specialist manufacturer of high quality, small diameter metal tube products for the defense and aerospace sectors, amongst others, has been awarded three Nadcap reaccreditations for its heat treating, welding, and non-destructive testing programs.
Nadcap (National Aerospace and Defense Contractors Accreditation Program) assesses and supplies independent accreditation of specialist manufacturing processes and products to companies operating in the aerospace and defense sectors.
Superior Tube received the sought-after certifications after a series of highly exacting audits designed to test every aspect of each process under scrutiny. The company received the reaccreditation for a number of years now, resulting in the re-auditing schedule being extended to one-and-a-half years, rather than the standard one-year renewal process.
The Superior Tube quality team has also recently achieved renewal certification for ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D, valid for the manufacture of small-diameter, cold drawn specialty tubing in multiple alloys.
Superior Tube is one of five business units comprising AMETEK SMP, together presenting a global force in the manufacture of advanced metallurgical products for specialist applications across a wide range of sectors. Superior Tube is based in Collegeville, Pennsylvania.
