Stainless Steel Fin Tube
Durable stainless steel fin tubes for efficient heat transfer applications.
Embedded fins (G-Fins) are made by winding aluminium or copper strip into a helical groove machined on the outer surface of the tube.
The strip winding technology provides different types of fins: L-Fin, LL-Fin, KL-Fin.
G Type embedded fin tubes are widely used in applications requiring efficient heat transfer and robust performance, including:
G Type embedded fin tubes are a specific kind of heat exchanger component that involves embedding a metal fin into the surface of a base tube. This design enhances heat transfer efficiency and durability, making it suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure applications.
The process begins with selecting a suitable base tube, typically made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel. The tube is cleaned and prepared to ensure a smooth and contamination-free surface for the subsequent steps.
A specialized machine is used to cut a precise G-shaped groove into the surface of the base tube. The groove typically has a specific depth and width to accommodate the fin strip securely.
A continuous metal strip, usually made of aluminum or copper, is inserted into the G-shaped groove. The strip is carefully aligned and positioned to ensure it fits snugly into the groove.
A rolling tool or wheel is employed to press the fin strip into the groove. The rolling action deforms the metal around the groove, pushing it back over the fin strip and securing it in place.
After the fin strip is embedded, the finned tube undergoes a series of finishing processes. This includes trimming any excess material, smoothing the edges, and performing quality checks to ensure the fins are evenly spaced and properly embedded.
The finished G Type embedded fin tube is subjected to rigorous testing and quality control procedures. This includes checking the mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and overall integrity of the tube.
