Titanium coiled Tube for Heat Exchanger ASTM B861
Titanium Coiled Tube for Heat Exchanger (ASTM B861)
Titanium coiled tubes manufactured according to ASTM B861 are widely used in heat exchanger systems due to their excellent corrosion resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and superior heat transfer performance. Formed into continuous coils, these tubes provide increased surface area, enabling enhanced heat exchange efficiency.
Titanium seamless coiled tubes are ideal for applications involving corrosive fluids, seawater, brine, chlorides, high temperatures, and demanding industrial environments. Their seamless structure ensures uniform wall thickness, high-pressure resistance, and long service life, making them suitable for both heating and cooling processes.
Inside a heat exchanger, fluid flows through the titanium coils and exchanges heat with another medium, achieving efficient thermal transfer with minimised energy loss.
