Wondering which fin tube is the right one for your project?
That&#;s an excellent question.
When you look at the wide variety of fin tubes available, it&#;s like sliding out every single drawer in a Craftsman Series tool chest. There are hundreds of tools, each with a special purpose &#; but only one is right for each job.
It&#;s easy to feel overwhelmed. Here&#;s what you need to know to choose the perfect finned tube, and why variety in a manufacturer may be the secret to repetitive success.
One of the biggest reasons fin tubes come in so many different shapes and sizes is the need to respond to working temperature.
This factor can vary according to industry and job type. Some customers may be cooling boiling hot steam that requires an extreme working temperature &#; or simply cooling hot water out of a spigot where temperature accommodation isn&#;t so critical. It all depends on how much heat the tube needs to take.
Keep in mind there&#;s no hard and fixed code written for fin tubes or heat transfer. This is not an exact science. Due to liability issues, most manufacturers stick to temperature ranges &#; a generalized gauge rather than a down to the decimal point number.
So if your project needs to handle at least 250 degrees, we recommend a tube that can handle a little extra to cover the gap. Better to be safe than sorry.
That being said &#; you&#;re not made of money. Why pay extra for copper tubing or cooling capability you don&#;t necessarily need?
Yet you still need to be sure your fin tubing is up to the job. Need versus expense should be weighed and balanced. The cost of a meltdown &#; and downtime to replace the machine &#; can be substantial.
As we said, there are many types of fin tubes, including:
Which one&#;s right for you?
Most customers who call us already have an idea of what they&#;re looking for &#; but it can depend on a number of factors, such as:
As the name implies, an applied fin tube is when the fin is applied to a tube as a separate material, fastened by high tension. This way, an alternative metal such as copper can be used to optimize cooling.
The beauty of applied fin tubing is the potential for a higher fin count &#; as many as 14 to 16 fins per inch. The drawback is applied tubes don&#;t always work well for bent applications &#; say if the fin count per square inch is too low or the correct coating is not applied. We recommend consulting with a sales specialist to decide on the best solution.
With low fin, medium-high fin and high fin tubes, the fin is extruded from the wall of the tube itself with proprietary dies. These tubes are highly malleable and can be bent without disconnecting the fins.
There&#;s what&#;s standard &#; and then there&#;s prototyping a custom idea to address a unique and highly specialized situation.
For the most part, the market defines and drives our need to find new ways to make fin tubes. Customers will approach us with an idea &#; one we&#;ve never heard of before. But our engineers get creative and find a way &#; build and test a custom prototype until we find something that works &#; it&#;s both manufacturable and meets the customer&#;s requirements.
The company is the world’s best Extruded Fin Tube supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.
And then out of the blue &#; say 2 to 3 years later &#; that same prototype is the next exciting generation of cutting edge tube everyone&#;s talking about at the trade show.
We like to give our customers the opportunity to customize and prototype. Our engineers and machinists mock up a pilot example to build, test and tweak in small batches. Once we&#;ve got something that works, we&#;ll throttle up to full production.
Every day we&#;re on the with customers who aren&#;t sure what they need. It&#;s a common dilemma. Stumped? Call us. We&#;re happy to help.
Give us a ring &#; tell us a story. Our salespeople can lead you down the right path nearly every time.
The key to finding the right tube is working with a manufacturer that can offer a variety of options.
One of the reasons Energy Transfer can offer so many versatile choices is we have a machinery warehouse of very rare machines &#; some have been around since the 40&#;s and &#;50s. Our machinery and inventory give us an opportunity to make products no one else can.
We like being a custom fin tube manufacturer. Why focus on just one product when the diversity of need in the industry is so great? Because not only is the industry spectrum rich and encompassing &#; so is need on the job site.
Get exactly what you need, when you want it, from a supplier that can deliver anything from the industry&#;s biggest tool chest &#; a Jack of all trades of fin tube variety.
We&#;ve got &#;em. Lots of types and styles. Call us. We&#;ll find you the right and perfect fine tube &#; each and every time.

Fin tubes are a type of heat exchanger that is used in many different industries. These tubes have a finned surface, which increases their surface area and allows them to transfer heat more efficiently. This makes them ideal for applications where high heat transfer rates are required, such as in power plants and refrigeration systems.
Fin tubes are made from a variety of materials, including copper, aluminum, and stainless steel. They are available in a range of sizes and shapes and can be customized to meet the specific needs of each application.
One of the key benefits of fin tubes is their ability to operate efficiently at high temperatures and pressures. This makes them suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including air conditioning, heat exchangers, and radiators.
In addition to their high thermal performance, fin tubes are also durable and long-lasting. They are resistant to corrosion and can withstand the harsh environments often found in industrial settings. This makes them a cost-effective solution for many different industries.
DuraFin Tube is solely focused on producing the largest variety and most complete solutions for finned tubing. These tubes are made in two typical styles. Applied finned tube which helically winds metal fins onto a tube or pipe. The second type, extruded finned tubes, are made by forming fins into a base tube creating integral fins on the outside and/or inside diameter.
These products encompass our DuraFin®, DuraCor® and DuraForm® line of technical tubing. Our large variety of finned tube options gives the customer solutions to improve efficiency and heat transfer in most any heat exchanger. Review our finned tube product offerings to discover the best solution for you.
