True Tube, Inc started out as R&D Machine Company back in 1976. It was started by Robert Galli, a genius in the metal forming industry. In 1980 R&D Machine became True Tube, Inc. and expanded into a new facility in Paso Robles. Our specialty tubing is a tapered wall tube (fuel rod simulator) used in the nuclear power generating industry. The process for manufacturing these tubes was developed by Robert Galli and has not been copied worldwide. Robert retired in 1992 and handed the reigns over to his son Richard, daughter Roberta and her husband Dennis.

          Since then we have expanded once again, into our second location right across the street. We now have over 13,000 square feet of space. Our tube drawing operation at 1160 Ramada Drive is run by Roberta & Dennis Herndon. Our machine shop, job shop, and CNC department at 1200 Ramada Drive is run by Richard & Monica Galli.

We also have a third generation working with us, our sons Bryan, Bob and Russ are here too!
