ASTM B163 N08825 Extruded Finned Tube With AL1060 Fins For Oil Refinaries

What is ASTM B163 N08825 Extrudded Finned Tube with Aluminum Fins?

ASTM B163 N08825 Extruded Finned Tubes with Aluminum Fins are heat transfer components made of high-quality Inconel 825 alloy and aluminum. The tubes are used in heat exchangers and boilers, where aluminum fins are attached to the outside of the tube to increase the surface area for heat transfer. The aluminum fins are extruded onto the tube, creating a permanent bond that provides excellent corrosion and heat resistance.

These fins are typically used in applications where high-temperature and corrosive environments are present, such as chemical processing, oil refineries, and power generation. They can withstand extreme temperatures and are resistant to scaling, oxidation, and corrosion, making them suitable for use in harsh industrial environments. The aluminum fins provide increased efficiency in heat transfer, helping to improve overall equipment performance and reduce energy costs.
