Grade 1 titanium is a superstar for heat exchangers because it’s incredibly corrosion-resistant. It forms a protective oxide layer that stands up to acids, chlorides, and high-temperature fluids, making it perfect for harsh industrial environments. Unlike copper, which can corrode over time, or stainless steel, which may pit in chloride-rich settings, our tubes stay strong and reliable for years.
Their lightweight nature is a big win, reducing the overall weight of heat exchanger systems and simplifying installation. They’re also highly ductile, making them easy to form and weld for complex designs. With a temperature range of -253°C to 400°C, these tubes handle everything from cryogenic processes to hot chemical flows. For industries looking for durability and efficiency, our Grade 1 titanium tubes are the way to go.
