Steel

🟦 Product Overview

Boiler & Heat Exchanger Tubes are seamless carbon steel tubes designed for high‑temperature, high‑pressure applications in boilers, condensers, heat exchangers, and industrial thermal systems.

This combined page includes the three most widely used boiler tube standards:

• ASTM A179 — Low‑carbon, cold‑drawn heat exchanger tube
• ASTM A192 — High‑pressure boiler tube
• ASTM A210 — Medium‑pressure boiler tube (Grades A1 / C)

These tubes are engineered for:

• Excellent heat transfer
• High pressure resistance
• Uniform wall thickness
• Superior performance in thermal cycling environments

🟦 Standards

• ASTM A179 — Cold‑Drawn Heat Exchanger Tube
• ASTM A192 — High‑Pressure Boiler Tube
• ASTM A210 — Medium‑Pressure Boiler Tube (A1 / C)
• ASME SA179 / SA192 / SA210
• GB/T 5310 (optional equivalent)

🟦 Grades

• A179 — Low‑carbon, cold‑drawn
• A192 — High‑pressure boiler tube
• A210 Grade A1 / C — Medium‑pressure boiler tube
