The Role of Wirco's Fabricated Radiant Tubes for Our Heat-Treating Customers
Fabricated radiant tubes are high-performance heat exchangers designed to deliver consistent, controlled heat to furnace chambers without direct flame contact. Constructed from advanced heat-resistant alloys, they excel in high-temperature environments, where durability and thermal efficiency are critical. These tubes act as barriers between combustion gases and the materials being heat-treated, enabling:
- Precise temperature control.
- Protection of materials from oxidation or contamination.
- Uniform heat distribution across the furnace chamber.
Our Fabricated Radiant Tubes are similar to cast tubes except they are produced out of formed stainless steel exclusively at Wirco’s Avilla campus. Wirco fabricated tubes can be supplied as complete assemblies or as unassembled components.
- Gas Fired Radiant
- Annealing Tubes
