Here are the different types of finned tubes that are available to order from USEL Tubular Division:
Helical high finned tubes
A finned tube can be used for various applications, including heat recovery. The helical high finned tubes are used to manufacture and repair air-cooled heat exchangers to ensure that they function efficiently.
Helical high finned tubes have been used for the last 60 years and are essential for emergency repair and maintenance.
This type of finned tube can be made up of various fins, including:
- Applied fins
- Extruded fins
- L fins
- G fins
- KL fins
HF welded helical finned tubes
The HF welded helical finned tubes are commonly used for boilers and fire-rated heaters. They are renowned for efficient heat recovery too and are carefully manufactured to meet requirements.
With this type of finned tube, a continuous helical fin is attached to the tube through high-frequency resistance welding and is thermally bonded to offer reliability.
The HF welded tubes are available in a choice of sizes, thicknesses and height ranges, along with the option for solid or segmented fins.
Integrally finned tubes
Increasing the efficiency of heat transfer in fluids is made easy with an integrally finned tube. As well as increasing efficiency, the integrally finned tubes keep the cost of heat exchangers low and minimise the overall size of the tube. These fins are rolled from the tube which is integral.
Tubes made from stainless steel, nickel or titanium have a greater fin density, whilst others made from carbon steel, copper and copper alloys have a deeper profile and lower fin density.
Should you choose an integrally finned tube, USEL Tubular Division can provide you with products that are u-bent or plain – depending on what suits your needs best.
Longitudinal finned tubes
The longitudinal finned tube is ideal for various applications, including double pipe, multi-tube heat exchangers, tank heaters and gas coolers.
The fins of longitudinal tubes are formed from the u-channel base and pressure is rolled and spot welded.
The team at USEL Tubular Division can provide fins to suit your application, so whether you’re looking for tubes that are perforated or solid, you’re sure to find what you need.
No matter which heat exchanger tube you choose from USEL Tubular Division, they ensure smooth delivery and service. Call them on 0191 587 1777 to find out more today.
