Product
Hairpin Heat Exchangers
Hairpin exchangers give you true counter-current flow in a compact, stackable package. We build them in single and multi-tube versions and in banks of several sections; one of our recent sets went to Petroleum Development Oman through Fortune Engineering & Energy Services.
Why customers choose it
Counter-current flow
Handles temperature crosses without extra shells.
Stackable
Banks of sections save plot space on crowded sites.
High pressure
Well suited to high-pressure gas and hydrocarbon service.
Removable bundles
Tube bundles pull out for cleaning and inspection.

Questions buyers ask us
When is a hairpin better than shell and tube?
When there is a temperature cross, when the duty is small to medium, or when high pressure would make a shell and tube unit heavy and expensive.
Do you ship to the UAE, Saudi Arabia and the rest of the GCC?
Yes. Both our factories are in Coimbatore, about 195 km from Cochin port, with Tuticorin and Chennai also within reach. We pack for sea transport and ship to ports such as Jebel Ali, Khalifa Port, Dammam, Jubail, Sohar, Hamad and Shuwaikh. Our equipment is already in service with ADNOC, PDO Oman, OQ, QAPCO, Kuwait Oil Company and Ma'aden.
Can our inspector or a third-party agency witness the tests?
Of course. We regularly work with Bureau Veritas, Lloyd's Register, TÜV NORD, SGS, HSB and other agencies, and your own inspector is welcome at any stage.
