What Are Titanium Condenser Tubes?
Titanium condenser tubes are seamless or welded tubes specifically engineered for heat exchangers where aggressive media (seawater, brackish water, chemicals) flow on either side. Combining lightweight with outstanding corrosion resistance, titanium outperforms copper-nickel and stainless steel in marine and chemical environments. Our products serve shell tube condenser and shell in tube condenser designs, ensuring maximum thermal efficiency and longevity. Available grades: Gr1, Gr2, Gr7, Gr12, and custom solutions for extreme conditions.

Comparison: Titanium vs. Traditional Condenser Materials
Titanium offers superior corrosion fatigue resistance in chloride-bearing environments. For ac condenser tube and marine condensate drain tube applications, titanium eliminates pitting and crevice corrosion common in stainless steel. Our titanium tube coil condenser designs also provide higher heat transfer coefficients due to thinner walls possible with titanium's strength.
Key Applications of Titanium Condenser Tubes in Industry
🏭 Power Generation
Surface condensers in thermal & nuclear plants – titanium tubes resist cooling water corrosion, extending service life up to 40 years.
Desalination & Marine
Shell and tube condenser units for MSF and MED desalination; also offshore platforms, shipboard heat exchangers.
❄️ HVAC & Refrigeration
Ac condenser tube for industrial chillers, evaporators, and cooling towers – lightweight and chlorine resistant.
⚗️ Chemical Processing
Heat exchangers handling acids, chlorides, and aggressive organics. Condensate drain tube systems benefit from zero product contamination.

Frequently Asked Questions – Titanium Condenser Tubes
What is the typical wall thickness for titanium condenser tubes in seawater service?
+
-
For most seawater cooled shell and tube condenser, wall thickness ranges from 0.5 mm to 1.2 mm (BWG 22 to 18). Grade 2 titanium provides excellent erosion-corrosion resistance even at higher velocities.
Can you supply titanium tube coil condenser for retrofit projects?
+
-
Absolutely. We manufacture custom titanium tube coil condenser to fit existing shell dimensions. Send your drawings and we will quote with fast turnaround.
What is the difference between ASTM B338 and B861 for condenser tubes?
+
-
ASTM B338 covers both seamless and welded titanium tubes for condensers and heat exchangers; B861 is specific to seamless tubes. We supply both, fully certified.
Do you stock condensate drain tube in small diameters?
+
-
Yes, we stock condensate drain tube in OD 6mm to 12.7mm for instrumentation and drainage systems. Contact our stockist team for quick availability.
How to ensure compatibility with existing tube sheets?
+
-
We provide expanded tube end samples and can match your tube sheet hole pattern. Our engineering team assists with roller expansion parameters.
