9 Types of Titanium Tubes and Their Uses

Titanium tube has lightweight, high strength, and superior mechanical properties. It is widely used in heat exchange equipment, such as tube heat exchangers, coil tube heat exchangers, serpentine tube heat exchangers, condensers, evaporators, and conveying pipes. Many nuclear power industries regard titanium tubes as standard tubes for their units. In this article, we'll introduce 9 types of titanium tubes and their uses.

Types of Titanium Tubes and Their Uses

1. Welded Titanium Tube for Low-pressure Fluid Transportation

Welded titanium tubes for low-pressure fluid transportation are also known as welded tubes. They are welded titanium tubes used to transport water, gas, air, oil, and heating steam, which are usually lower-pressure fluids and other uses.

In addition to being directly used to transport fluids, welded titanium tubes for low-pressure fluid transportation are also used as raw tubes for galvanized welded titanium tubes for low-pressure fluid transportation.

2. Galvanized Welded Titanium Tube for Low-pressure Fluid Transportation

Galvanized and welded titanium tubes for low-pressure fluid transportation are also called galvanized and welded titanium tubes short. They are hot-dip galvanized welded titanium tubes used to transport water, gas, air, oil, heating steam, warm water, etc., usually low-pressure fluids or other uses.

3. Common Carbon Titanium Wire Sleeve

They are titanium tubes commonly used in industrial and civil buildings, installations and equipment, and other electrical equipment projects for the maintenance of electrical wires.

4. Titanium Tube with a Longitudinal Electric (Resistance) Weld 

A titanium tube with a weld line parallel to the longitudinal direction of the titanium tube. Usually divided into metric welding titanium tube, welding thin wall tube, transformer cooling oil tube, and so on.

5. Submerged Arc Welded Titanium Tubes with Spiral Seams for Conveying Pressurized Fluid

It is made of hot-rolled titanium strip coil as tube blank, often formed by a warm spiral, welded by double submerged arc welding method, and used for pressure fluid transportation.

This kind of titanium tube has strong pressure bearing capacity, good welding performance, and is safe and reliable. The titanium tube has a large diameter, high transport efficiency, and can save investment in laying pipelines, mainly used to transport oil and natural gas pipelines.

6. Spiral Seam High-frequency Welded Titanium Tubes for Pressurized Fluid Transportation

This type of titanium tube is made of a hot-rolled titanium strip coil as a tube blank, which is spirally formed at room temperature, and is welded by high-frequency lap welding, and used for pressure fluid transportation.

Titanium Tubes

This type of titanium tube has strong pressure-bearing capacity and good plasticity, which is convenient for welding and processing, and is safe and reliable. And the titanium tube has a large diameter and high transport efficiency and is mainly used for laying pipelines for transporting oil and natural gas.

7. Submerged Arc Welding Titanium Tubes for General Low-pressure Fluid Transportation

This type of submerged arc welding titanium tube is made of hot rolled titanium coil as a tube blank, spirally formed at room temperature, and is made by double-sided active submerged arc welding or single-sided welding. It is mainly used for water, gas, air and steam, and other low-pressure fluid transportation.

8. High-frequency Welded Titanium Tube with Spiral Seam for General Low-pressure Fluid Transportation

This spiral seam high-frequency welded titanium tube is made of a hot-rolled titanium coil as a tube blank, spirally formed at room temperature, and welded by high-frequency lap welding, usually used for low-pressure fluid transportation.

9. Spiral Welded Seam Titanium Tube for Pile

This type of titanium tube is made of hot-rolled titanium strip as a tube blank, spirally shaped at room temperature, and made by double-sided submerged arc welding or high-frequency welding, and is used for root piles in civil engineering structures, docks, bridges, and the like.
