Boiler Tubing

PTC produces top-quality A178 welded boiler tubes with precise specifications and finishes, designed for optimal performance in steam conversion applications.

Background

Boiler tubes are an integral part of any industrial boiler used to convert water to steam.

PTC manufactures high quality welded boiler tubing to the requirements of ASTM/ASME SA 178. 

ERW ID riffled, and chevron embossed pattern heat exchanger boiler tube produces an efficient heat transfer rate by increasing the surface area geometry. This helical rib pattern causes a phenomenon of water and steam where the liquid water is forced against the tube wall to promote cooling performance. This is more efficient than a standard boiler tube.

Our processes are designed to provide a superior product for your boiler tube needs. 

Close wall uniformity, OD and wall tolerances as well as precise ID flash control and the ability to provide both bright and blue finishes are hallmarks of our processes.
