ASTM A179 specification covers minimum-wall-thickness, seamless cold-drawn low-carbon steel tubes for tubular heat exchangers, condensers, and similar heat transfer apparatus. This specification covers tubes 1⁄8 to 3 in. [3.2 to 76.2 mm], inclusive, in outside diameter.
- Manufacture: Tubes shall be made by the seamless process and shall be cold drawn.
- Heat treatment: Tubes shall be heat treated after the final cold draw pass at a temperature of 1200°F [650°C] or higher.
- Surface Condition: Finished tubes shall be free of scale. A slight amount of oxidation will not be considered as scale.
- Tests: Flattening Test, Flaring Test, Flange Test, Hardness Test, Hydrostatic Test.

Low Fin Tubes/Integral Fin Tubes are increasingly being used in various fluid heat exchangers. It is suitable for the shell side medium is relatively clean, no corrosion, no scaling, can use low thread finned tube as heat exchange element to form low thread finned tube high efficiency heat exchanger.
Material: Typically constructed from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy or copper, providing durability and resistance to corrosion.
- Fins are typically spaced apart and have a low height, which minimizes flow resistance while still providing significant surface area for heat transfer.
- Corrosion resistance, wear resistance, low contact thermal resistance.
- The design enhances heat transfer efficiency while maintaining a compact structure.
- Versatile application, suitable for a wide range of industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.
- Power Generation: Employed in boilers and condensers to improve heat recovery and overall efficiency.
- HVAC Systems: Utilized in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems to improve energy efficiency.
- Heat exchangers, boilers, furnaces and refineries: Widely used in various types of heat exchangers, including air-cooled and water-cooled systems.
