Turbulator Products
Partner with us for your turbulator manufacturing needs. We specialize in creating turbulators with diverse geometries, dimensions, and materials, providing optimal efficiency solutions for various heat exchanger systems.
We offer four primary turbulator designs that can be customized for both small and large production quantities. Our turbulators are tailored to match the specific tube sizes, flow regimes, and temperatures of the application. This ensures optimal heat transfer efficiency and pressure drop characteristics. Additionally, we strongly recommend practical testing to assess the impact of turbulators on the overall efficiency and pressure drop within the specific application.

Angular “Brock” Turbulators are small baffles, fabricated using a flat strip of steel with bends that are angled and spaced in such a way that they cause turbulence in the flow of combustion gases through tubes. This spreads the hot gases evenly over the heating surfaces and makes heat exchange more efficient. Turbulators are sized to match the ID of the tubes. Length, width, material type, and quantity will vary according to the heat exchange equipment in which they are used. Used in new and existing equipment.

Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers
Any Tubular Heat Exchange Equipment
-
Materials:
Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel or Copper. If we can source the alloy, we can fabricate it.
Width:
.150” – 4” – For larger tubes, multiple band options available
Length:
Limited ONLY by shipping feasibility

Twisted Tape Turbulators are static mixers, fabricated using flat strips of steel that are formed into spiral or helix. Inside tubes, they induce a swirling and mixing action of tube side fluid causing higher near wall velocities, eliminating thermal boundary layers, and breaking up laminar flow regimes. Twisted Tapes are sized to closely match the ID of the tubes. Length, width, and material type will vary according to the heat exchange equipment in which they are used. Used in new and existing equipment.

Multiband Turbulators are 2-4 turbulators arranged, angled, and spaced in such a way that they cause turbulence in the flow of combustion gases through tubes. This spreads the hot gases evenly over the heating surfaces and makes heat exchange more efficient. Turbulators are sized to match the ID of the tubes. Length, width, material type, and quantity will vary according to the heat exchange equipment in which they are used. Used in new and existing equipment.

Coiled Rod Turbulators are coiled springs, fabricated in such a way that the coil OD closely matches the tube ID. Inside tubes, they induce a swirling and mixing action of tube side gases causing high near wall velocities, eliminating boundary layers providing the greatest measure of conductive heat transfer. Length and material type will vary according to the heat exchange equipment in which they are used. Used in new and existing equipment and occasionally conjunction with other types of turbulators.
