Heat Exchanger Tubes Specification

Mechanical Properties of Heat Exchanger Tubes

The strength and durability of stainless steel heat exchanger tubes depend on their grade and mechanical properties. Below is a quick reference table showing the tensile stress, yield strength, and elongation values of commonly used grades.

What is the manufacturing process used for producing heat exchanger tubes?

The manufacturing of heat exchanger tubes involves several precise processes to ensure strength, durability, and efficient heat transfer. It typically begins with selecting high-quality raw materials, such as stainless steel, carbon steel, or copper alloys.

For seamless tubes, the material is heated and pierced to create a hollow structure, followed by elongation and drawing to achieve the desired diameter and wall thickness.

For welded tubes, flat steel sheets or strips are rolled into a cylindrical shape, and the edges are welded together using high-frequency or laser welding techniques. After forming, the tubes undergo heat treatment to relieve internal stresses and enhance mechanical properties. Precision finishing, including straightening, sizing, and surface polishing, ensures dimensional accuracy and smooth internal surfaces.
