:: Integrally Finned copper tubes

These tubes incorporate an integral fin (rather than an applied fin) which is rolled up from the wall of the tube. This method of rolling fins from thick wall tubes is well established as a method of reducing size and cost of heat exchangers.

Two types are available:

Type 1 - Low fin

This type of finned tube is used for heat exchanging in commercial units, for condensation, evaporation, and the cooling and heating of liquid and gas, including water, oil, steam and air.

Type 2 - Medium fin

These tubes, in addition to the homogenous fin, also incorporate an internal corrugation which together lead to the following advantages:

• the heat is led in an unbroken path between the tube wall and the fin;
• the triangular cross section of the fin improves heat transfer and reduces the risk of deposits;
• the internal corrugations improve the heat transfer when used in conjunction with fluids.

(STOCK SIZES - 15mm x 22mm - For none standard sizes please contact us on +44(0)1484-515386 or email: enquiries@abacus-tubes.co.uk) .

Both types of tube are available in a range of sizes.
