SCF Partners (“SCF”) is excited to announce its acquisition of American Piping Products (“APP” or “the Company”), a leading value-added distributor of mission-critical tubular products serving the diversified industrial, refining & chemical, power generation, data center, energy and LNG markets.

Founded in 1994, APP has a 32-year track record as a trusted connector between mill suppliers and a broad, diversified base of more than 1,800 customers across the United States and around the world. The Company’s deep, decades-long mill relationships, value-added distribution capabilities, and reputation for reliability have made it a critical supply partner across a wide range of end markets.

SCF’s partnership with APP will accelerate the Company’s next phase of growth through geographic expansion, continued investment in its commercial and operational capabilities, and the capital needed to further support the needs of both existing and new customers and strategic suppliers.

Mike Hubbell, CEO of American Piping Products, commented, “APP has built its business by consistently delivering for our customers and developing strong, long-standing relationships with our suppliers. As we look ahead, we see significant opportunities to expand our reach and capabilities while maintaining the service and reliability that have defined APP for more than 30 years. SCF’s deep understanding of our markets, industry relationships, and experience supporting growth make them an ideal partner as we enter this next stage of growth.”

“APP is an exceptional business with a differentiated position in the supply chain and long track record of delivering for its customers,” said Deviyani Misra-Godwin, Managing Director at SCF Partners. “Its core energy and industrial markets align closely with sectors where SCF has deep experience and relationships, while its growing presence in power generation and data center infrastructure provides compelling opportunities for future growth. We look forward to partnering with Mike and the exceptional team at APP to build on the Company’s success and support its continued expansion.”
