Overall length of tubes/mockup
How many tubes of each material do you need & total number of tubes in the mockup.
Do you want a specific tube sheet layout? (3×3, 4×3, etc.)
Non-square layouts can be requested.
How many defects per tube/mockup bundle do you need?
Do you want to use our defect layouts, or would you like to specify your own defects?
If you do not want to use our defect layouts, we will need specifics of the kinds of defects – If you have drawings that you can provide, that would be preferred.
Type of defect (I.D. pitting, I.D. / O.D. cracking, flat bottom holes, round bottom pits, etc.)
Diameter/width/length of all defects
Depth of all defects
Tube sheet material and thickness. (typically, A516-70. A36 is more economical)
Standard thickness is 0.25” thick. 0.375” thick for mockups with covers.
Support plate material, number of support plates and thickness of support plates. (typically, A36 carbon steel)
Do you want a removeable cover? The cover is typically aluminum.
If you want a cover, the tube sheet thickness will be a minimum of 0.375” thick.
Do you want the tubes to be removeable/serviceable?
If you do not want the tubes to be removable, we can expand them into place if the tube sheet is at least 1” thick.
Do you want a storage case for the mockup? There is a custom case made to fit your mockup and can be used to store and transport the mockup.
