Tyler Pipe - Industrial Maintenance Electrician

Who We Are...

For nearly 70 years, Tyler Pipe & Couplings has been serving its customers as one of the United States’ premiere manufacturers of cast iron soil pipe and fittings for the plumbing industry. Tyler Pipe was named after our home base in Tyler, Texas. From our inception in the mid-1930s as the country was coming out of the Great Depression and experiencing economic recovery, Tyler Pipe was able to adapt to industry change. This resilience and strength is the driving force behind the Tyler Pipe of today. Every Tyler pipe and fitting, coupling and gasket is designed to meet industry standards – often exceeding these standards. Whether it’s the no-hub cast iron soil pipe or the hub and spigot gaskets, each of our products meets the stringent requirements set by the American Society for Testing and Materials. This gives us the confidence to tell our customers that when they get Tyler, they’re getting the best. That’s Tyler Tough. Tyler Pipe is wholly owned by McWane Inc., one of the largest manufacturers of fire hydrants, valves, and cast-iron pipes in North America.
