Aluminum High Frequency Welded Tube (HFW Pipe)

Aluminum High Frequency Welded Tube is also called Aluminium HFW Pipe. It is manufactured by forming a flat strip of aluminum into a tubular shape and then joining the edges by a high-frequency welding process, and seam welded without the use of any filler material. The welded tube is then adjusted in size until reaching the exact size and tolerances.

The aluminum high frequency welded tube is a kind of composite tube. The main difference between extruded and drawn tubes is the possibility to have a weldable layer material of different aluminum alloys. Generally, the core material is 3003 and the clad weldable alloy is 4343 or 4045. It is widely used in tubes for heat exchanger production to enable the furnace or flame to braze and to give sacrificial corrosion resistance.

In addition to the welded tube with a weldable alloy, we also supply another kind of aluminum composite tube, which is an al-al composite drawn seamless tube with multi-layer material, mainly used as a condenser header pipe.

As one of the leading tubing manufacturers in China, CHAL Aluminum Corporation supplies a variety of aluminum tubes, including aluminium radiator tubes, aluminum charge air cooler tubes, condenser tubes, aluminium round tubes, micro-channel tubes, drawn tubes, seamless tubes, drawn seamless tubes, composite tubes, and welded tubes.

Our aluminum high frequency welded tubes are manufactured with high precision and extremely low tolerance to meet the customer’s specific requirements, and welded tubes can be created in a variety of different sizes and shapes from a wide range of alloys. The most common shapes are round, flat, oval, rectangular, and square, thin-walled or thick-walled aluminum tubes are also available. The general standard inventory sizes and customized specifications are available for inquiry.
