Titanium is a common material for these heat exchangers, particularly for their primary members, including a heat exchanging plate and piping, thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance to seawater.
Titanium heat exchangers are cost-effective and long-lasting, even in corrosive conditions such as saltwater.
They are popular in processes involving corrosive materials - for example, in chemical industries. They are also very lightweight, lending themselves well to aerospace applications.

In a tube-in-shell heat exchanger the supply fluid flows through a helical titanium coil enclosed within an insulated PVC barrel, and the second fluid flows over the titanium coil, inside the barrel and absorbs or rejects heat, depending on the intended purpose.
Tricor Metals designs and builds bolted and gasketed plate heat exchangers for many industries including Chemical, Refinery, Power Generation, Metal Processing, Lube Oil Cooling, and many more. We stock components including SS316 and Titanium plates for speedy PHE build and fulfillment.
The titanium sheet is used by the medical industry because of its high strength to low weight ratio. A titanium plate can also be used for sporting equipment. An example of how the titanium plate can be used for equipment includes golf club heads/drivers
Titanium is highly resistant to chemical attack and has the highest strength to weight ratio of any metal. These unique properties make Titanium suitable for a wide range of applications.
