About Us

Nu-Tech Precision Metals Inc. has been providing material solutions for the nuclear industry for the past 65 years. Nu-Tech pioneered an original method to extrude zirconium and titanium into seamless tubes which has evolved into our world class products produced currently. Fast forward to today and Nu-Tech has over half a century of innovation in developing and supplying every pressure tube to every CANDU reactor operating in the world.

 Our innovation continues with the development of products such as those used in the core of new Small Modular Reactors and the construction of zirconium pressure vessels for testing new forms of nuclear fuel used in these reactors.

In late 2021 Nu-Tech joined the family of companies owned by Reliance Steel and Aluminum, the largest metal supplier and distributor in the world.  Nu-Tech is now able to leverage its expertise in materials engineering and quality control to provide access to the world’s largest store of raw materials with over 100,000 different metal forms and grades.  We are ready to assist with your metal supply challenges for plate, bar, forgings, fasteners, fittings, pipe or tubes, in any material.  

Nu-Tech Precision Metals is a major manufacturer of seamless Titanium pipe and tube in North America. We can produce standard and non-standard pipe sizes in just about any alloy.

Since 1960, we have gained worldwide recognition as a trusted manufacturer of specialty metal extrusions, fabricated parts and welded components using Titanium, Zirconium, Niobium, Hafnium, Tantalum, Beryllium, Copper Alloys, Nickel, Steel and many more.

We manufacture complex, precision metal components for a wide variety of markets including:

  • nuclear
  • aerospace
  • medical
  • construction
  • chemical
  • military
  • mining
  • offshore drilling
  • sputtering
  • desalination

 

Nu-Tech is proud to be Canada’s only commercial Electron Beam Welding facility. This specialized form of welding permits the permanent joining of dissimilar metals into precision components.

We also offer state-of-the-art welding processes such as Plasma Arc, GMAW (MIG) and GTAW (TIG).

We work with stainless steel, reactive and refractory materials and weld Titanium, Hastelloy, Zirconium, Monel, Copper and Beryllium.

We specialize in the production of complex seamless pipe, tube, rods and shapes in Titanium, Zirconium, Niobium, Hafnium, Tantalum and Beryllium. We also produce Titanium Clad Copper and Platinum Clad Titanium conductor bars for corrosive environments.

Our large machine shop and metal finishing department provide secondary operations such as cold drawing, honing and centreless grinding.
