Cooling System Heat Exchanger Tubing
Product Spotlights
Heat exchange tube is a specialized tubular product used in boilers, heat exchangers, condensers, and other thermal equipment to transfer heat between two fluids. These tubes are typically manufactured from carbon steel, stainless steel, copper alloy, or titanium, offering high thermal conductivity, pressure resistance, and corrosion resistance. Common international standards include ASTM A179 (seamless carbon steel for heat exchangers), ASTM A213 (seamless ferritic and austenitic alloy steel), EN 10216-2 (European standard for pressure purposes), and JIS G3461 (Japanese standard for carbon steel boiler tubes). Typical grades include SA-179, T11, T22, 304L, 316L, and SMLS tube grades. To compare different heat exchange tube standards, search “ASTM A179 vs EN 10216-2 equivalent”; for thermal conductivity data, use “heat exchange tube thermal conductivity chart”; to check tube wall thickness calculations, search “heat exchanger tube thickness formula ASME”; for material selection guidance, use “stainless steel vs copper heat exchange tube performance”.
China’s domestic standards for heat exchange tubes mainly follow GB/T 3087 (seamless steel tubes for low and medium pressure boilers), GB/T 5310 (seamless steel tubes for high pressure boilers), and GB/T 151 (heat exchanger tube specifications). Common Chinese grades include 20G (for high-pressure boilers), 15CrMoG, 12Cr1MoVG, and 06Cr19Ni10 (304 equivalent) for stainless steel applications. These tubes are available in various outer diameters ranging from 12mm to 76mm, with wall thicknesses from 1mm to 8mm. To cross-reference Chinese grades with international equivalents, search “20G steel equivalent in ASTM”; for Chinese heat exchanger tube dimension tables, use “GB/T 5310 tube size chart”; to verify mechanical property requirements, search “Chinese heat exchange tube tensile strength standard”; for a sample Chinese mill test certificate, use “China heat exchanger tube MTC example”.
Heat exchange tubes are widely used in power generation boilers, chemical processing plants, HVAC systems, oil refineries, marine heat exchangers, and food processing equipment. In fossil fuel power plants, carbon steel tubes like SA-179 or 20G are commonly used for feedwater heaters and low-pressure boilers, while alloy steel tubes such as T11, T22, or 15CrMoG are preferred for high-temperature superheaters and reheaters. Stainless steel grades like 304L and 316L are essential for corrosive environments in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. To select tubes for power plant applications, search “superheater tube material selection guide”; for chemical plant corrosion resistance requirements, use “316L heat exchanger tube for acidic media”; to review HVAC system design standards, search “HVAC heat exchange tube specification ASHRAE”; for marine application case studies, use “marine heat exchanger tube material 90/10 CuNi vs titanium”.
When sourcing heat exchange tubes internationally, critical parameters include grade and standard, outer diameter and wall thickness tolerances, tube length, surface condition (as-drawn, annealed, pickled), and non-destructive testing requirements (eddy current, hydrostatic, or ultrasonic testing). Also confirm heat treatment condition (normalized, stress-relieved, or solution annealed) and whether third-party inspection is required. For wall thickness tolerance standards, search “heat exchange tube thickness tolerance ASTM A450”; to compare different surface finish options, use “pickled vs annealed heat exchanger tube surface”; for current international pricing trends, search “heat exchanger tube price per meter 2025”; to locate certified global suppliers, use “heat exchange tube manufacturers Europe directory”.
