  3. Heat Treatment Validation: Confirmation of proper heat treatment as per standards

Our  U bending facilities have the flexibility to meet your most demanding delivery requirements. Lengths of up to 28 meters can be bent.Where required the ‘U’ tubes can be pressure tested and stress relieved to suit your requirements.’U’ tubes bent fully in accordance with TEMA class R.

Heat Treatment on U bend parts

Heat Treatment Capabilities

  • Scope of Work:
    We are fully equipped to perform heat treatment on bends, including a minimum of 150mm of the leg.

Heat Treatment Equipment:

  • Our heat treatment equipment is computer-controlled, with advanced data recording capabilities for precise monitoring and quality assurance.
  • For stainless steel and special alloy tubes, we use an argon protective atmosphere during the heat treatment process to ensure optimal results.

Types of Heat Treatment Offered:

  • Annealing: A process to soften the metal and relieve internal stresses.
  • Solution Annealing: A high-temperature heat treatment that dissolves precipitates, enhancing corrosion resistance and improving mechanical properties.
  • Stress Relieving: This treatment reduces residual stresses caused by welding or forming processes.
