Fine Tubes manufactures a full range of thin wall tubing products that are ideal for the fabrication of condenser tubes. Designed specifically for the role condenser tubes play in the heating, cooling or reheating of fluids and gases, our precision tubes are commonly used in thermal and nuclear power stations, as well as chemical processing plants.
Our tube mill has the flexibility to produce condenser tubes in seamless, welded and welded redrawn formats in the following grades of metal:
-
Stainless steel (304L, 316L)
-
Titanium alloy (Ti CP Grade 2)
-
Austenitic stainless steels (904L)
-
Nickel alloys (C276, C22, Alloy 600)
You can order our thin wall precision tubes in sizes from 12.70mm to 38.10mm OD, and the Fine Tubes range covers the majority of standard specifications used in the industry. However, when required we also offer non-standard specialist sizes on request. Our manufacturing program is designed to fully meet the demands of customers in this sector in terms of price, delivery and specifications.
