LJT material meets exacting Inside Diameter Tolerances, allowing for efficient and consistent mandrel bending, telescope applications etc.
LJT trades on consistency and the ability to provide a Total Value Product allowing customers to forecast usage to LJT, and facilitate a vendor managed inventory program
Cut to length tube and laser cutting tube are available to all customers
