Manufacturing & Design
- Precision Forging: Ensures uniform wall thickness and tight radius tolerance (1.5D standard).
- Solution Annealing: 925–1010°C heat treatment enhances grain structure for high-temperature stability.
- HF Weld Compatibility: Matches finned tube systems with seamless integration in heater circuits.
Applications
Perfect for:
- Industrial furnace radiant coils
- Petrochemical reformer units
- Waste heat recovery systems
Key Advantages
- Carbide Stability: Titanium addition prevents intergranular corrosion under cyclic heating.
- Thermal Fatigue Resistance: Handles rapid temperature fluctuations common in furnace operations.
- Dimensional Accuracy: Tight tolerances reduce flow turbulence and pressure drop.
