EMBEDDED FIN

High conductivity fin tube for high temperature applications up to 450°C. Embedded Fins have a helical groove formed in the tube surface with an uplift of metal each side which, when peened back into the fin, produces a firm mechanical bond.

 

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

EXTRUDED FIN

Integral fin tube produced by rolling and extruding from a thick wall tube of aluminum or copper which is easily cold formed. Where internal corrosion resistance is required the tube is rolled down on an inner sleeve tube which provides excellent thermal conductivity between tubes. The sleeve can be arranged to protrude at each end to facilitate fixing the headers. Maximum operating temperature 250°C.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

ROLLED LO-FIN

Integral fin tube produced by form rolling from a plain thick wall tube. The rolling process forms a high strength fin with the plain ends remaining in the original condition suitable for expanding, welding, or brazing into headers. For shell and tube applications the outside diameter of the plain ends is larger than the over fins.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

"L" FIN

Economically produced fin tube for moderate working temperature up to 150°C. "L" fins rely on maximum surface contact between fin and tube which is ensured by tension forming fin strip helically wound around the base tube. A considerable degree of protection is given to the tube by the foot at the base of the fin.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

"LL" FIN

Double "L" fin is used on applications requiring additional protection to the surface of the base tube. It is similarly produced to the foregoing "L" fin, but has a wider fin base which is overlapped during the winding process. Maximum operating temperature 175°C.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

HELICAL SERRATED FIN

Our serrated fin is a metal strip which has been cut and performed to provide a base flange which is then helically formed under tension around the specified tube. The flange is fused to the tubular base by resistance welding. The fused fin flange and tube contact area exceeds the cross section area of the fin stock assuring a conducting heat path with a higher heat transfer coefficient with strength and durability.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

LONGITUDINAL FIN

Our longitudinal shaped fins are resistance welded to the outside of the tube or pipe in a parallel pattern.

MANUFACTURING DETAILS

HELICAL NON-SERRATED FIN

Our Solid fin, in the form of a metal strip, is helically wound around the specified tube/pipe and continuously welded to the pipe or tube using the M.I.G. process.
