Spiral Finned Tube Welded Helical Serrated Finned Tubes For Industrial Heat Exchangers

Material

The Spiral Finned Tube, also known as a Welded Helical Serrated Finned Tube, is a type of enhanced heat transfer component made by welding helical fins to the surface of a base tube. The base tube is typically manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel, while the fins are usually made from the same or compatible materials. The fins are helically wound and welded onto the tube’s outer surface to increase heat transfer efficiency in air-cooled heat exchangers, boilers, and industrial radiators.

Specifications

• Base Tube Material: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel (ASTM A179, A213, A333, etc.)

• Fin Material: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel

• Fin Type: Helical serrated fin (continuous or segmented)

• Fin Height: 8–16 mm

• Fin Thickness: 0.8–1.5 mm

• Fin Pitch: 2.5–10 mm

• Tube Outer Diameter: 19–63.5 mm

• Tube Wall Thickness: 2–5 mm

• Fin Attachment: High-frequency resistance welding

• Length: Up to 15 meters (customizable)

Main Features

• High Heat Transfer Efficiency: The serrated fin design creates turbulence in the air stream, improving overall heat transfer performance.

• Strong Fin Bonding: The high-frequency welding process ensures excellent metallurgical bonding between fins and the base tube, ensuring long service life under thermal cycling.

• Corrosion and Oxidation Resistance: Suitable for high-temperature and corrosive gas environments.

• Customizable Design: Fin dimensions, pitch, and materials can be tailored for specific industrial applications.

• Durability: Excellent mechanical strength to withstand vibration, thermal expansion, and contraction cycles.

Our Advantages

From a professional manufacturer’s perspective, we focus on several key aspects that customers care most about:

1. Precision Welding and Straightness Control:
   Our advanced high-frequency welding lines ensure fin-to-tube bonding consistency, with tube straightness controlled within ±1 mm/m and minimal distortion.

2. Dimensional and Tolerance Accuracy:
   Tube outer diameter tolerance is maintained within ±0.5%, and fin pitch accuracy is within ±0.2 mm, ensuring optimal heat exchange uniformity.

3. Extended Service Life:
   We employ ultrasonic and eddy current testing to guarantee weld integrity, significantly extending product service life compared to conventional fin tubes.

4. Material Certification and Traceability:
   Each batch of materials comes with full traceability under ISO 9001 standards, ensuring compliance with ASTM/EN/JIS specifications.

5. Corrosion Protection Options:
   Optional surface treatments such as galvanizing, aluminum coating, or epoxy painting are available for enhanced corrosion resistance.
