C12200 DHP Copper
Seamless copper tube manufactured to the ASTM B 75 – Standard Specification for Seamless Copper Tube may be either round, square, or rectangular and is suitable for general engineering applications. Tubes meeting this standard may be furnished in any of several tempers (H55, H58, H80, O60, or O50) ranging from light drawn (usually limited to round tubes) to light annealed. It is the responsibility of the purchaser when ordering, to provide the requirements for alloy (UNS#), temper, dimensions (diameter, wall thickness, or distance between parallel surfaces), form (straight lengths or coils), and total length or number of pieces of any particular size. It is this requirement that forces this tube to be a special order tube and not a standard stocked material. Ameritube mainly provides this alloy where there is no corrosion resistance necessary and high heat transfer is required.
Phosphorus-Deoxidized copper tubes – C12200 – are extensively used in sugar refineries for condensers and evaporators. Deoxidized copper is the standard material for transferring heat from steam to water or air because of their excellent resistance to corrosion by fresh water and their high thermal conductivities.
