Integral Low Fin Tube from Profins
 
Profins can offer rapid deliveries of integral low fin tube for use in situations where extended surface is required, but lack of space or heat exchanger type dictates otherwise. Material selection can be carbon steel, stainless steel or copper based alloys. Profins low fin tubes can be ordered bent into U-tubes if required. With tube diameters from 5/8" through to 1" O/D,(15.88mm to 25.4mm) and fin density ranging from 16 to 36 fins per inch (632 to 1417 fins per metre) we can accommodate almost any enquiry.

Integral Low Fin Tube has the advantage that it can improve the thermal performance of a Heat Exchanger without the necessity for changing shell size, flow arrangement or the repositioning of piping.

The external surface of the tube is increased by the formation of “low fins” by direct extrusion from the material of the base tube.
