Calculators
Industrial Calculation Tools
Explore our specialized calculators designed to assist with tube rolling and expansion applications. These tools provide precise calculations to ensure quality and efficiency in your projects.
Wall Reduction Calculator
This tool calculates the percentage of wall thickness reduction after a tube is expanded into a tubesheet.
Value of this Tool:
Ensures the final expanded tube wall meets minimum thickness requirements for pressure and corrosion resistance. This is critical for preventing premature tube failure and maintaining the integrity of heat exchangers.
Tube Gauge Calculator
Converts between various tube measurement standards, such as Birmingham Wire Gauge (BWG), and their decimal or metric equivalents.
Value of this Tool:
Standardizes communication and ordering of materials. It eliminates confusion between different measurement systems, ensuring you select the correct tube size and compatible tooling for the job.
Expander Selector
Helps you choose the correct tube expander tool based on the tube's outer diameter, wall thickness, and other project specifications.
Value of this Tool:
Guarantees you achieve a proper, leak-proof seal without damaging the tube or tubesheet. Using the right expander is fundamental to the performance, safety, and longevity of the final assembly.
