Having the right piping is crucial to maintaining reliable and efficient air distribution. At BuyKaeser.com, we supply a diverse line of modular aluminum air pipe solutions for compressed air systems. Our SmartPipe™ and SmartPipeXL™ systems are designed to distribute compressed air without the contamination, friction, and layout limitations of other piping alternatives. Learn more about our aluminum piping options and the benefits they can offer kaeser air compressors inside your facility.
Why Choose Aluminum Piping for Compressed Air?
Aluminum piping gives facilities advantages that steel, copper, and PVC alternatives do not. Companies routinely prefer aluminum piping for its unique benefits, including:
- Rust resistance. While steel pipes can corrode over time and accumulate contaminants, aluminum maintains its rust resistance, providing cleaner and more consistent air output.
- Less friction. Aluminum pipes have a smooth interior that minimizes friction, reducing the risk of pressure drops and decreasing energy consumption.
- Strength-to-weight ratio. Aluminum is a light metal, so installers can easily handle the pipes during installation. The pipes also require fewer supports and can form more customizable layouts.
- Cost-effectiveness. Aluminum piping has a relatively low material cost and can last for years with minimal maintenance and replacement costs.

With Kaeser’s unique aluminum piping solutions, you can access even more benefits. We develop versatile, modular solutions that your team can modify and expand to meet the demands of new layouts or disassemble and move to new locations. Compare our Kaeser SmartPipe™ and SmartPipeXL™ piping products to find the right solution for your system.
SmartPipe™ for Small to Medium Systems
Kaeser’s SmartPipe™ provides seamless air piping infrastructure to meet a range of system needs. These pipes are designed for use with compressed air, vacuum, and inert gases. SmartPipe™ offers the following:
- Fast installation without any brazing, welding, or threading
- Smooth interiors without lips, seams, or obstructions
- Compatibility with existing pipes
Their modular, lightweight construction promotes fast, simple installation, with quick-connect couplers and plugs for easy connection. The pipes range from 3/4″ to 2 1/2″ in diameter, making them an ideal option for smaller applications.
SmartPipeXL™ for Large-Scale Industrial Systems
Our SmartPipeXL™ offers all the advantages of SmartPipe™ with larger pipe sizes for demanding environments. The piping products range in diameter from 3″ to 8″, with a leak-free construction that can handle heavy loads on an industrial scale. SmartPipeXL™ is ideal for both compressed air and inert gas systems. It has a robust construction and fittings designed to handle high volumes of airflow without air or energy loss, making it ideal for large-scale applications.
Benefits of Aluminum Piping Systems
At Kaeser, we capitalize on the benefits of aluminum to create more robust and versatile compressed air pipe solutions. Our aluminum piping systems are light enough for easy overhead installation without the costs and complications of steel or copper. They are also smooth and rust-resistant, allowing for laminar airflow with reduced risk of contamination or corrosion. The smoother the airflow without pressure drops, the better your output.
All of these benefits translate to better and more cost-effective performance. Facilities of all sizes can rely on Kaeser aluminum piping to contain and transport compressed air without leaks or pressure loss. Teams can also use the modular design of our SmartPipe™ systems to expand, modify, and move systems as their operations change and grow, making it a future-friendly choice for businesses across industries.
