Tube sheet (tubesheet) for heat exchanger
We provide precision tubesheets with various materials include wide range of clad steel consisting of corrosion resistant materials. We are strict to use of high quality and guaranteed raw material , proved by raw material certificate with each delivery.
CNC drilled, chamfer, grooved etc as the drawings’ requirements.
Tube holes can be drilled and reamed and can be machined with one or more grooves. This greatly increases the strength of the tube joint.
A tubesheet is an important component in heat exchangers, boilers, and condensers. It serves as a structural support and a sealing interface for the tubes within these systems. Tubesheets are typically circular metal plates drilled with precise holes to accommodate the tubes, and they ensure the mechanical integrity and proper functioning of the equipment.
Tubesheets are designed and manufactured according to recognized standards, such as:
- ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC)
- TEMA (Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association) standards
- API 660 for heat exchangers in oil and gas
Tubesheets Material:
- Typically made from carbon steel, stainless steel, brass, or alloys (e.g., Inconel or titanium).

Applications of tube sheet
- Heat Exchangers:
- Used to separate and support the tube bundle while maintaining the integrity of shell-side and tube-side fluids.
- Boilers:
- Tubesheets provide structural support for the tubes that carry steam or hot water.
- Condensers:
- Serve as the interface for cooling water tubes in power plants and HVAC systems.
- Chemical Processing Equipment:
- Used in reactors or pressure vessels to handle aggressive chemicals.
