The strip material is subjected to controlled deformation under tension giving the optimum contact pressure of the foot of the fin onto the base tube thus maximising the heat transfer properties.
Our ability to draw base tube from our stock of over 1,000 tonnes allows us to react quickly to clients’ demands and to remain competitive with any other producer worldwide. Ours’ finning facility enables numerous fin and tube material and size combinations to be manufactured. This gives us unrivalled flexibility and allows us to react swiftly to emergency orders.

Application & Benefits of Low Fin Tubes
Our finned tubes are used in shell and tube heat exchangers in the following markets:
Low finned tube can increase the performance of an existing exchanger without the difficult and expensive task of building new shells etc
Larger heat transfer surface compared to smooth tubes
Savings in material thanks to reduced tube length
Fill level reductions on account of increased efficiency
Enhanced heat exchanger efficiency means less tube is required to accomplish the same heat transfer as a bare tube
