The proven design and quality of the Uni-Lok product range is globally accepted and used in a variety of industries including oil and gas, chemical and petrochemicals, iron and steel, pulp and paper, mining, general industrial, etc. Established in 1984, ISO 9001 accredited Uni-Lok applies strict quality control measures during the manufacture of stainless steel tube fittings and instrumentation valves.
