Industries We Serve
A look at where our tubing goes to work
Greenhouses
Greenhouse structures demand tubing that can stand up to moisture, humidity, and years of outdoor exposure without rusting out or degrading. Griffin Supply’s galvanized tube products are a natural fit — providing the corrosion resistance and structural integrity that commercial and agricultural greenhouse builders rely on for long-lasting, low-maintenance frames.
Recommended Products:
Gatorshield®, Zinc Flo-Coat®
Conveyor Systems
Conveyor frames, rollers, and support structures require tubing with consistent dimensional tolerances, reliable weldability, and the strength to handle continuous load-bearing use. A513 Mechanical Tube is a workhorse in conveyor manufacturing — offering the precision and versatility that production line engineers depend on.
Recommended Products:
A513 Mechanical Tube, Zinc Flo-Coat®
Farm Equipment
Agricultural equipment operates in some of the harshest environments imaginable — exposed to soil, moisture, chemicals, and constant mechanical stress. Griffin Supply’s galvanized tube products provide the corrosion resistance and strength that equipment manufacturers need to build machinery that holds up season after season.
Recommended Products:
Gatorshield®, Zinc Flo-Coat®, Galvanized Pipe
Tarp Systems
Tarp and covering systems — used on trucks, trailers, grain bins, and storage structures — require lightweight yet durable tubing that resists corrosion over years of outdoor use. Griffin Supply’s galvanized products are a go-to for manufacturers building roll tarp, pull tarp, and custom covering systems across the agriculture and transportation industries.

Gatorshield®, Zinc Flo-Coat®
Awning & Tent Structures
Commercial awnings, event tents, and shade structures demand tubing that is strong, lightweight, and capable of a clean finished appearance. Zinc Flo-Coat®’s paint-ready surface makes it a preferred choice for awning and tent frame manufacturers who need corrosion protection without sacrificing aesthetics.

Zinc Flo-Coat®, Gatorshield®
Boat Docks
Dock frames and marine structures face constant exposure to water, humidity, and seasonal weathering. Galvanized tubing is the standard material of choice for dock manufacturers who need structural integrity and corrosion resistance in a product that will spend its life at the water’s edge.

Gatorshield®, Galvanized Pipe
Playgrounds
Playground equipment must meet rigorous safety and durability standards while standing up to years of outdoor exposure and heavy use. Griffin Supply’s galvanized tube products provide the corrosion resistance, consistent wall tolerances, and strength properties that playground equipment manufacturers require to build safe, long-lasting structures.
Recommended Products:
Gatorshield®, Zinc Flo-Coat®
Solar Racking
Solar racking and mounting systems are a growing end market for galvanized mechanical tubing. Racking structures require corrosion-resistant, dimensionally consistent tubing that can be efficiently cut, welded, and assembled in high volumes. Griffin Supply’s product line and Midwest distribution position make us a natural supply partner for solar racking manufacturers across the region.
Recommended Products:
Gatorshield®
Kennels
Dog kennels, pet enclosures, and animal containment structures require tubing that is strong, safe, and built to resist the corrosive effects of outdoor exposure and cleaning chemicals. Galvanized tube is the industry standard for kennel manufacturers — providing a durable, rust-resistant framework that holds up in both commercial and residential applications.
