Finned tubes
Extruded
Extruded aluminum finned tubes manufactured by DH-TS are particularly suitable for applications in the following sectors:
- Oil refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants
- Natural gas compression stations
- Steel mills
- Steam condensation systems
- Waste incineration plants
Primarily used in corrosive atmospheres and high temperature conditions, the extruded fin is manufactured by compressing an aluminum sleeve on to a parent tube. High pressure transforms the aluminum into the final fin profile using rotating disks.
Extruded fins offer the following advantages:
- Full protection of bare tube against corrosion.
- High mechanical fin strength.
- May be used at temperature up to 300°C (572 °F)
"G"
Embedded “G” type finned tubes manufactured by DH-TS are particularly suitable for applications in the following sectors:
- Oil refineries, chemical and petrochemical plants
- Natural gas compression stations
- Steel mills
- Steam condensation systems
- Waste incineration plants
This fin’s primary applications are high temperature or cyclic services:
- The design consists of an aluminum strip placed into a groove on the primary tube, tension wound on the edge and finally kept in place by the groove lip.
“G” Fins offer the following advantages:
- Provides a perfect bond between the fin and the tube
- May be used at temperatures up to 400°C (752°F)
