Ladhani Metal Corporation offers Half Round Tube Shields specially designed for refinery heaters, where tubes are exposed to extremely high operating temperatures, flue gas velocity, and abrasive particle erosion. These shields act as a protective barrier, preventing tube surface wear, oxidation, and localized damage in the radiant and convection sections of refinery heaters. By absorbing erosive and thermal stress, Half Round Tube Shields extend tube service life, reduce maintenance downtime, and improve heater reliability. Function of Tube Shields in Refinery Heaters • Protect heater tubes against erosion, oxidation, and scaling • Reduce wear in high-flue-gas velocity zones and flame-impinged areas • Extend tube lifespan under continuous high-temperature service • Improve refinery heater efficiency and minimize shutdown frequency Ladhani Metal Corporation manufactures, supplies, and exports Half Round Tube Shields in refinery-grade stainless steels and heat-resistant alloys, offering custom sizes to meet specific heater configurations. Available Grades • SS 304 / SS 304L • SS 310 / SS 310S • SS 316 / SS 316L • SS 410 / SS 420 / SS 430 • 1Cr13 • 1Cr18Ni9Ti • 1Cr20Ni14Si2 • 1Cr25Ni20Si2 • Cr23Ni13 • Cr25Ni20 Applications: Used in refinery heaters, petrochemical furnaces, process gas heaters, and other fired equipment requiring tube surface protection against oxidation, erosion, and flame impingement. Uses • Shields radiant section tubes from high-temperature scaling • Protects convection section tubes against flue gas erosion • Extends operational life of refinery heater components • Provides reliability under continuous refinery operating cycles Features • Excellent high-temperature oxidation resistance • Strong mechanical strength under thermal cycling • Precision-formed to match tube curvature for complete coverage • Available in stainless steel and heat-resistant alloy grades Applications • Refinery fired heaters – Protects radiant and convection section tubes • Petrochemical process furnaces – Guards against erosive and thermal wear • Thermal cracking and reformer heaters – Enhances tube longevity • Industrial fired heaters – Suitable for high-temperature corrosive atmospheres Conclusion Half Round Tube Shields for Refinery Heaters by Ladhani Metal Corporation deliver reliable, export-quality protection for tubes operating under extreme refinery service conditions. Available in stainless steels and special alloys, these shields are engineered to enhance efficiency, reduce erosion damage, and extend heater tube service life.
