LL-Foot Fin / Overlapped L

Description

LL-Foot Fin – Double L/Overlapped L

The LL-Foot type fin is commonly known as double L or overlapped L fin, are used in applications where temperatures do not exceed about 350 degrees Fahrenheit The fins are manufactured from strip in similar to the L type except that the foot is preformed into an accurately controlled stepped double L shape, rolled into a taper which causes it to curl. It is then continuously helically wound under tension onto a tube. The fin hugs the tube with one fin overlapping the foot of the next fin with complete coverage of the base tube. This gives good corrosion protection to the tube. This type of tube is often used as an alternative to the more expensive extruded type fin in corrosive environments. The fins are secured at each end in a similar way as L fin.
