Studded Tube Product Description:
Resistance Welding of Studs on Bare Tubes is used to create the studded Fin Tube.
The fins are made via electrical resistance welding of the Fin Material, which is essentially a stud or rod welded to the tube at the base.
The current is directed through the Tube and the studs’ bases. The studs are created in certain shapes to help with the welding process. The Stud is manually forced on the tube at the site of welding during the finning “welding” process, resulting in a very good mechanical bond. Fin Tubes of this sort are well-suited to high-pressure and high-temperature applications. The mechanical bond is quite strong, thus it is used in places where there will be a lot of mechanical pressure and stress during the process or cleaning, for example.
Fin Tubes are used in Finned Pipes, Air Coolers, Heat Exchangers, and other applications, and are favoured in industries such as Petrochemical Refineries, Power Plants, Chemical Industries, Steel Plants, and so on.
Studded Tube(Stainless Steel Welded Tube) Manufacturing Process:
The steel studs are automatically resistance welded to the tube, producing high quality forge welds. The welding process enables the combination of any grades for studs and tube: carbon, low alloy, stainless steels and high nickel alloys.
Studded Tube(Welded Stainless Tube) Advantages:
Due to their high rigidity, studded tubes can be used even under extreme temperature and pressure conditions.
Studded Tube(Black Welded Pipe) Properties:
Manufacturing Process:- Electric Resistance Welding
Fin To Tube Bond:- Excellent
Heat Transfer Efficiency:- Excellent
Mechanical Resistance:- Excellent (Hence can be frequently cleaned with high pressure jets unlike other fin tubes. Thereby reducing down time and increasing overall life)
Corrosion Protection:- Gives excellent corrosion protection to the base tube since it entirely covers the base tube (except bare ends).
Temperature Range:- Depending on Properties of material of Fin (Stud) and Pipe
Studded Tube(Weld Galvanized Pipe) Applications:
Steel studded tubes are used instead of finned tubes for heat transfer in the processing industries, generally in furnaces, gas turbines, fired heaters and furnace applications where the surface is exposed to a very corrosive environment and where very dirty gas streams require frequent or aggressive cleaning

STUDDED TUBE
Studded tubes are used as substitution of finned tubes for heat transfer in the petrochemical industry, generally in fired heaters and boilers where the surface is exposed to a very corrosive environment and where very dirty soot formation require frequent or aggressive cleaning.
FABRICATION PROCESS
The studs are automatically welded to the tube by electric resistance welding machine. The welding process is controlled by PLC program, stepping motor, indexing adopt brake motor. All the welding parameters such as number of studs, pitch, compensation coefficient etc. are input via human machine interface(HMI), Product quality could be guaranteed by the settings according to the process requirements.
The automatic stud feeder was developed by our engineers combining both our large experience manufacturing extended surface and the most modern control technology available in the market. The technology has benefited us with more efficient production and consistent welding quality.
APPLICAITONS
Murphy's studded tubes are generally installed in the convection sections and boilers where the surface is exposed to a severe operating case of dirty flue gas.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Studded Tubes:
1. What is a Studded Tube?
Studded tubes are a type of metal tubes. These tubes have studs welded onto the metal tube.
These studs are arranged in a specific formation throughout the length of the tube.
They are often used in boilers and refineries. As they increase the surface area for higher heat transfer they are used for reheating.
2. Why use studded tubes?
The heat exchange efficiency is equivalent to 2-3 times that of the bare pipe.
Easier cleaning especially for operating cases with very dirty flue gas produced by burning heavy oil, diesel or residual oil.
To increase the film heat transfer coefficient of flue gas to the furnace tube.
Increase efficiency in the process of heat recovery and direct flame hostile atmospheres.
Reduce the amount of bare pipes used in these processes. (Heat transfer surface of one studded pipe is equivalent to surface of 4 to 10 bare pipes). Stud Pipe's ideal for processes applications where dirty fuels are used and harsh environments in terms of temperature and/or corrosion.
Studded fin tube is a standard frequency electric-resistance-welded studded type surface. It is normally manufactured with round carbon steed studs on carbon, alloy or stainless steel tubes with diameters from 1.5" to 12.75".
3. What are the important factors for high frequency welding?
The four most important factors / process parameters influence High frequency welding are
Electrical power
Pressure applied
Welding time
Cooling time
Finding the optimal process parameters will depend on your specific equipment, the materials involved and the specific geometries including thickness and area to be welded. Achieving optimal results is often an experimental process guided by experience. As a guiding rule, the thicker material and focus on short weld times you need, the stronger electrical power / HF generator you need.
4. What is High Frequency welding?
High frequency welding (often abbreviated HF welding or RF welding) is a manufacturing process where two plastic parts are welded together using an electromagnetic field. The resulting join can be very strong – often close to the original strength of the materials joined. In some scenarios the weld can be even stronger than the original materials.
Using a high frequency electromagnetic field, the material is heated and pressure added to melt and fuse the two materials together. No outside heart is applied. Instead the heat is generated within the materials. During cooling (under continued pressure), the materials are fused together and a weld has been created. This results in a very strong bond between the two parts.
5. Where are Studded Tubes used?
Studded tubes are used instead of finned tubes for heat transfer in the processing industries, generally in furnaces, gas turbines, fired heaters and furnace applications where the surface is exposed to a very corrosive environment and where very dirty gas streams require frequent or aggressive cleaning.
6. How do you control your quality?
We always put quality as the most important thing for customers, and we control the quality from raw material inspection, production checking to water pressure test and strength test. Also the third party can be authorized to check.
