- Edge
Tension Wound (K-Fin)
Tex-Fin
edge tension wound finned tubes offer a low cost solution for
low to moderate temperature applications. The surface of the tube
is knurled as the fin is wound tightly on edge around the O.D.
of a tube to ensure proper fin to tube contact. Edge tension wound
finned tubes are commonly used in applications with small amounts
of vibration and metal temperatures to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

Dipped
Tex-Fin
solder dipped bonded finned tubes are edge tension wound to assure
proper fin to tube contact before the solder is applied. The soldering
process creates a fin attachment that is ideal for forming or
bending. Solder dipped finned tubes are commonly used in applications
with temperatures ranging from -300 degrees Fahrenheit to +450
degrees Fahrenheit.

- Root
Solder Bonded
Tex-Fin
root solder bonded finned tubes are edge tension wound in the
same manner as the solder dipped fintube. The soldering process
utilizes enough solder to bond the base of the fin to the tube.
This leaves most of the fin surface clean of any solder coating,
which may impede heat transfer capabilities. Root solder bonded
finned tubes are commonly used in applications with temperatures
ranging from -300 degrees Fahrenheit to +450 degrees Fahrenheit.

- Integral
Belled End Tubes
Belled end
tubes are required in applications where finned tubes for maintenance
purposes must pass through stationary tube sheets. Tex-Fin's integral
belled end finned tube eliminates the need for expensive silver
brazing of the tube to bell and greatly extends the life of the
belled end finned tube beyond that of any mechanically attached
belled end.

- Turbulators
Tex-Fin
turbulators are spiral strips that can be easily installed to
promote turbulence within the tube and enhance heat transfer of
certain viscous fluids. Turbulators are available in carbon steel,
stainless steel, aluminum, copper and nickel alloys.

- Tube
Supports
Tube supports can be provided to customer specifications.
Wiggle strips, aluminum, or galvanized steel preformed strips
that provide support in applications where tube pitch and fin
O.D. create a space may be used. In applications where tube weight
may be supported by fins, aluminum wrap on bands may be used.
