About Air Distribution Headers
Air Header
We offer Air Headers that replace many unit valve assemblies that normally operate from one source. The Air Headers are suitable for use with a variety of outlet take-off valves. The inlet-connection can be screw-able. The drain-valve of the system is at the manifold exit and the manifolds can be supplied with a bracket or U clamp for ease of wall mounting.

Superior Air Distribution PerformanceOur Air Distribution Headers deliver reliable, uniform air supply with each outlet, enhancing the efficiency of industrial pneumatic systems. Precision engineering and seamless welded construction provide leak-proof integrity and minimal pressure loss, ensuring optimal performance across all applications.
Customizable Design to Suit Every NeedTailor your air header with configurable outlets, a wide range of diameters (2" to 24"), and choice of materials-stainless steel, mild steel, or PVC. End connections are available in socket weld, butt weld, or flanged formats, and both horizontal and vertical installation options can be easily accommodated.
Robust Corrosion ProtectionFor extended service life in harsh environments, the headers are finished with high-quality epoxy paint or hot-dip galvanized coating, as per your requirements. These treatments resist rust and chemical damage, making them ideal for India's diverse industrial conditions.
FAQ's of Air Distribution Headers:
Q: How are Air Distribution Headers installed in an industrial setting?
A: Air Distribution Headers are designed for straightforward installation in both horizontal and vertical positions. They support multiple end connection types including socket weld, butt weld, and flanged, making integration into existing compressed air distribution systems uncomplicated and efficient.
Q: What material options are available for these Air Distribution Headers?
A: These headers can be fabricated from stainless steel, mild steel, or PVC, depending on plant requirements and environmental conditions. Each material provides distinct advantages in terms of strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.
Q: When should epoxy paint or hot dip galvanized coatings be specified?
A: Choose epoxy paint for enhanced resistance against chemical corrosion, or opt for hot dip galvanization when superior protection against atmospheric rust is needed. Selection depends on the particular demands of your industrial environment.
Q: Where can these headers be used in compressed air systems?
A: They are suitable for use in any industrial application requiring uniform compressed air distribution, and can be installed wherever consistent air pressure and flow are critical-from manufacturing floors to processing plants.
Q: What is the process for pressure testing these headers?
A: Each header undergoes a hydrostatic test at 1.5 times its design pressure, ensuring structural integrity and leak-proof performance before installation in any operational environment.
Q: How does the filtration function benefit compressed air systems?
A: Integrated pre-filtration (up to 99% efficiency) helps remove particulates from the supplied air, safeguarding equipment, improving overall system efficiency, and reducing maintenance costs.
