Standard Retubing

Retubing is a proven method to restore the performance and extend the service life of heat exchangers. Over time, tubes can suffer from fouling, corrosion,erosion, or mechanical damage, leading to reduced efficiency or leakage. During retubing, the old tubes are carefully removed, tube sheets are cleaned andprepared, and new tubes are installed, expanded, and sealed to OEM specifications. This process restores the unit to like-new condition, improves reliability,and minimizes the risk of unplanned downtime – all without the need to replace the complete bundle or heat exchanger.
