When it comes to building reliable, efficient water systems, what lies beneath the surface matters most. Our Lawton Engineering brand specialises in manufacturing copper and stainless steel tubes and fittings that enables the performance of water cylinders, heating systems, and industrial applications across the UK and beyond.
Copper Tubes: Conductivity Meets Durability
Copper has long been the material of choice for water engineering, and with good reason. Its exceptional thermal conductivity ensures efficient heat transfer, while its corrosion resistance and recyclability make it a sustainable, long-term solution. At Lawton Tubes, we manufacture a wide range of copper and copper‑alloy tubes, from soft to skin‑hard tempers. Available in straight lengths (from 6mm – 10 mm) or wound in coils (5mm to 50mm), every tube is produced to the highest tolerances and tested to meet international quality standards.
Stainless Steel & Duplex Fittings:
In addition to copper, we produce high-performance fittings in stainless steel and duplex alloys, engineered to withstand the high pressures and demanding environments of modern water cylinders and plumbing systems. These fittings ensure seamless connections and long-lasting performance, providing peace of mind for installers and end users alike.
Engineering Expertise
Our capabilities extend beyond materials. With advanced CAD/CAM design, CNC machining, and reverse engineering, we create bespoke solutions tailored to the most complex water technology challenges. Whether it’s a one-off custom component or a large-scale production run, our engineering team has the skillset and flexibility to deliver.
