Product Description
ASME SB171 C46400 Naval Brass Tubesheet
Forged or Rolled Plate | Corrosion-Resistant for Marine & Heat Exchanger Applications
Product Overview
This ASME SB171 C46400 tubesheet is manufactured from naval brass, a copper-zinc alloy with tin addition that significantly enhances corrosion resistance in marine and industrial environments. C46400 is widely recognized for its excellent resistance to seawater corrosion, dezincification, and stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for tubesheets in heat exchangers and condensers operating in aggressive water-based services.
Material Specifications & Manufacturing Options
| Attribute | Specification / Option | Key Details |
|---|---|---|
| Material Standard | ASME SB171 / C46400 (Naval Brass) | Copper-zinc-tin alloy offering superior corrosion resistance, particularly in seawater and brackish water. |
| Manufacturing Form | Forged or Rolled Plate | Forged provides enhanced mechanical properties; rolled plate is suitable for standard thickness requirements. |
| Dimensions | Custom per customer drawing | Thickness, diameter, and bolt circle machined to match existing heat exchanger or condenser. |
| Drilling Pattern | Triangular, Square, or Custom | Optimized for tube layout, flow distribution, and structural integrity. |
| Surface Finish | Machined, Grooved for Tube Expansion | Precision machining ensures accurate tube hole diameters and groove profiles for secure tube-to-tubesheet joints. |
Associated Components & Parts
| Component | Typical Material | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Heat Exchanger Tubes | C70600 (90/10 Cu-Ni), C71500 (70/30 Cu-Ni), or Admiralty Brass | Tube material should be compatible with C46400 tubesheet for galvanic corrosion control. |
| Shell or Channel | Carbon Steel (coated), Stainless Steel, or Copper Alloy | The housing that the tubesheet seals against. |
| Gaskets | Compressed Fiber, PTFE, or Metal Jacketed | Provides sealing between tubesheet and shell/channel flange. |
| Fasteners (Bolts/Nuts) | Stainless Steel (304/316) or Silicon Bronze | Selected to avoid galvanic corrosion with naval brass. |
| Baffles | C46400, C70600, or Coated Carbon Steel | Supports tube bundle and directs shell-side flow. |
