ASTM B163 N04400 Embedded G-Type Alloy Steel Fin Tube
Overview
ASTM B163 is a standard for seamless nickel and nickel alloy tubes, while N04400 refers to the specific alloy grade Monel 400. A fin tube is a type of tube with extended surfaces called fins attached to its surface, which helps in improving heat transfer efficiency. When combined, ASTM B163 N04400 Fin Tube refers to a seamless tube made of Monel 400 alloy with fins attached to its surface. It is commonly used in applications such as condensers and heat exchange.
Why choose embedded finned tube?
The embedded fins in the tube provide a significantly larger surface area, enabling more effective heat transfer. This leads to improved heat exchange efficiency, making embedded finned tubes ideal for applications that require efficient cooling or heating processes.Unlike external fin tubes, embedded finned tubes have fins that are firmly attached to the tube, providing greater strength and durability. This enhanced structural integrity allows them to withstand higher pressures, vibrations, and mechanical stresses in various industrial environments.
