Nuestra historia
Victaulic was founded on innovation. In 1919, Ernest Tribe and Dr. Henry Hele-Shaw filed the patent for what is now known as the Victaulic coupling, the concept was groundbreaking: joining pipe with bolted mechanical grooved couplings, using a gasket seal. The company, originally known as The Victory Pipe Joint Company, was renamed Victaulic which combined the words “VICtory” and “hydrAULIC”.
Before Victaulic, the piping industry relied primarily on welders for joining pipe. Victaulic’s innovative design introduced the industry to an efficient, more economical way to assemble pipes quickly, safely and over longer distances than ever before.
Los acoples Victaulic se utilizaron primero para el transporte de agua y combustible. Viendo una tremenda oportunidad, la compañía rápidamente puso los ojos en nuevos mercados, como los de minería, generación eléctrica y construcción comercial.
Hoy en día, Victaulic es conocido como el principal innovador en soluciones y servicios de tendido de tuberías. La compañía continúa transformando la industria con las más avanzadas tecnologías y servicios de ingeniería, que permiten a los clientes abordar los problemas de construcción más específicos.
