Embedded Fin Tube ASTM A213 T5 Aluminium Strip A1060 For Air Cooled Heat Exchanger

Key Features:

1. Base Tube Material: ASTM A213 T5 Alloy Steel
   ASTM A213 T5 is a high-alloy steel (chromium-molybdenum) that provides excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures. It is particularly suitable for heat exchangers where durability, strength, and resistance to thermal stresses are crucial. T5 alloy steel is designed to withstand the high temperatures and pressures encountered in industrial air-cooled heat exchangers.

2. Fin Material: A1060 Aluminum Strip
   A1060 Aluminum is known for its high thermal conductivity, lightweight, and excellent corrosion resistance. As a fin material, it ensures high efficiency in heat transfer by providing a large surface area while maintaining resistance to oxidation and environmental damage. Aluminum's low density reduces the overall weight of the heat exchanger, making it an ideal material for energy-efficient systems.

3. Fin Type: Embedded Fin
   The embedded fin design involves mechanically bonding the aluminum fins onto the base tube. This process ensures that the fins remain securely attached under thermal cycling and mechanical stresses. Embedded fins are ideal for high-efficiency heat exchangers, as they provide strong mechanical bonds and reduce the chances of fin detachment, ensuring consistent heat transfer.

4. Application: This fin tube is specifically designed for use in air-cooled heat exchangers, where it plays a crucial role in enhancing the heat transfer from the hot fluid (gas or liquid) to the cooler ambient air. Its efficiency makes it suitable for applications in power plants, petrochemical industries, and refrigeration systems.
