Technology


Hercol

Our Hercol machines, provide a unique fin surface giving a massive surface area for increased heat exchange capability. This technology is versatile and robust, providing our customer with a reliable and efficient cooler tube , which can be used on countless applications.

At Tube Fins Limited we can offer ribbon fin winding in aluminium, copper, steel, and stainless steel depending on your requirement. Coupled with our tabulating insert technology, this gives a huge performance boost to be one of the leaders in the finned tube industry.

Inserts

At Tube Fins Limited, its not just the external fin that provides coolers performance, but the internal winds too. Inserts down the bore of the tube cause the fluid media to be tabulated as it travels down the tube eliminated laminar flow and promoting tubular flow.

A crucial step in removing the maximum amount of heat as possible. We use a solder dipping process to bond this insert to the tube allowing a uninterrupted bond from insert to tube to external wind.
