Vipul Pipes and Tubes is a renowned Chennai, India-based manufacturer and supplier of top-quality Copper Nickel Boiler Tubing for various industrial usages. Exemplifying its commitment to excellence, Vipul Pipes offers tubing solutions that are resistant to corrosion, thermally stable, and perfect for aggressive marine and high-temperature conditions. Supported by state-of-the-art manufacturing practices and systematic quality inspection, the firm supplies Copper Nickel Tubing in accordance with international standards. Their timely delivery, sized as per clients’ requirements, and compliance with industry standards ensure that they are the preferred supplier of boiler and heat exchanger units.
Copper Nickel Boiler Tubing commonly consists of 90% Copper and 10% Nickel (or in certain grades, 70/30 composition). It contains trace levels of iron and manganese to add strength and corrosion resistance. Mechanical properties are tensile strength around 310-360 MPa and yield strength around 105 MPa. Elongation is around 30%, with very good thermal conductivity and a melting point close to 1170°C. Seawater corrosion, biofouling, and stress cracking are resistant in this tubing, making it an efficient one for harsh operational conditions like power generation and marine systems.
