Highly Durable ASTM A312 TP316L Stainless Steel Studded Fin Tube

What is studded fin tube?

Studed fin tube is made by electrical resistance welding specially formed studs(round pins ) in rows around the tube. The Studs can be supplied in a variety of sizes and shapes. Stud tube has a very high heat transfer efficiency. The heat exchange efficiency is equivalent to 2-3 times that of the bare pipe.

Features of a Studded Fin Tube:

-It occupies less space and is, therefore, compact
-Highly durable
-Preferred over Finned tubes as they act as heat transfer systems
-Enhanced performance
