Custom Welded Steel Radiant Tube for Industrial Furnace Heating Systems
Product Overview
FH® SS400 + Q235 Serpentine Bent Radiant Tube is a fabricated multi-pass heating tube system designed for industrial furnace applications requiring cost-effective structural steel solutions.
Unlike high-alloy radiant tubes, this model uses SS400 and Q235 carbon steel materials, making it suitable for:
- Medium-temperature furnace environments
- Structural heating systems
- Non-extreme oxidation conditions
- Cost-sensitive industrial heat treatment lines
The serpentine geometry significantly increases the heating surface area while maintaining a compact installation footprint.
Key Features & Advantages
1. Cost-Effective Industrial Heating Solution
Using SS400 + Q235 steel reduces material cost while maintaining structural integrity for medium-temperature applications.
2. Multi-Pass Serpentine Heat Distribution
The bent configuration maximizes heat exchange length, ensuring:
- More uniform heating
- Reduced hot spots
- Improved furnace efficiency
3. Strong Welded Structure Design
All bends and joints are precision welded with visible reinforced bead structure (as shown in image), ensuring:
- Structural stability
- Vibration resistance
- Long-term mechanical strength
4. Custom Engineering Manufacturing
FH® provides full customization based on furnace layout:
- Serpentine / S-type / multi-loop design
- Inlet/outlet positioning
- Base frame integration
- Tube diameter and wall thickness
5. Easy Maintenance & Installation
Modular welded construction allows:
- Faster replacement
- Simplified furnace integration
- Lower downtime cost

Material Explanation (SS400 + Q235)
This structure uses widely available industrial carbon steels:
- SS400 (Japan standard structural steel)
Good weldability and general structural strength. - Q235 (China structural carbon steel)
Excellent cost-performance ratio and fabrication flexibility.
This combination is ideal for non-extreme thermal furnace environments where alloy steel is not required.
