JGS-1500-38 Serrating Tube Sheet Tool
Portable, self-centering tool for grooving tube sheet. Unique single-piece mandrel with built-in rollers in the part that operates directly in the hole allows obtaining a perfect surface, free from burrs and flashes. The latter was formed with the previous designs during the friction of the mandrel against the walls of the hole - now, it is eliminated through the use of rollers - the mandrel rolls over the walls of the hole. Owing to the lack of friction the life of the tool has grown very significantly. As an option, the tool can be delivered with a specil channel conducted inside the mandrel. Channel serving the purpose of feeding the cooling medium directly through the tool cutter, this having an enormous impact on the life of the cutter and helping in rinsing out chips during the work. Grooving tools can be used both on portable and stationary multiradial drills. They also find their application on CNC machine tools.
Applications
- Tube sheet grooving during shell-and-tube heat exchanger manufacturing
- Tube sheet preparation for finfan cooler maintenance in petrochemical plants
