US Premier Tube Mills PT 20 and PT 15 are lighter-wall galvanized chain link fence pipe grades for light commercial, playground, school and residential gate framework.
About US Premier Tube Mills PT 20 and PT 15 Light Commercial Fence Pipe
PT 20 is built for light commercial and industrial chain link framework at parks, schools, parking lots and sports facilities. PT 15 suits playground enclosures and residential jobs, such as gates, that need a stronger frame than standard residential tube. Both grades have a 50,000 psi yield and are made in the USA from domestic steel.
PT 20 posts come in 1.900, 2.375 and 2.875 in O.D., and PT 15 posts in 1.660, 1.900 and 2.375 in, with 1.315 and 1.660 in top rail for both. The pipe uses the same triple-layer coating as PT 40. Finish is galvanized with a clear sealed top coat, or PTC Color Coat in black, green, brown or custom colors.
