A556 U bend Tube

3. U bend Tube Bundle Tolerances

Tolerances (diameter and wall thickness) according to ASTM A 556 or given in the standards detailed in table 1 point A are respected.

Bending tolerances. The tolerances stipulated in ASTM A 556 are respected.

Minimum wall thickness tolerances in the bent area conforming to the TEMA standard "Class R heat exchangers" can be requested or in accordance with specific requests.

4. U bend Tube Bundle Checks and test

All the mechanical and technological tests stipulated in the cited standards are carried out. 

Leak tightness test: electromagnetic test (Eddy Current) is performed on straight tubes. Hydrostatic test on bent tubes is performed only if expressly requested, specifying the test pressure

5. U bend Tube Bundle Standard Technical Range

OD 9.5mm  - 38.1mm

WT up to 6.35mm

6. U bend Tube Bundle Test

Heat treatment where required by electric furnance or direct resistance

Hydrotesting up to 10,000 psi

7. U bend Tube Bundle Additional Testing

Dye penetrant of U bend area

PMI testing

Heat Treatment

We are equipped to carry out heat treatment of bends plus a minimum 150mm of leg.

Heat treatment equipment is computer controlled with the added facility of data recording.

An argon protective atmopshere is used inside stainless and special alloy tubes during heat treatment.

We can provide all types of annealing; solution annealing and stress relieving.

Measuring, Cutting, Deburring and Cleaning

U bends are produced, controlled and measured fully in accordance with relevant standards.

All tubes are cut to the specified leg lenghts, ends deburred and the bores are internally cleaned with dried air.

8. U bend Tube Bundle Packing

For roadfreight in timber fingers or skids.

In strong open or closed wooden boxes depending destination.

Each bundle is protected with plastic sheets.

Customers can provide their own packing or Salem can prepare a packing plan.

Detailed packings lists are attached to wooden cases to give quick and clear identification of contents.
