After years of careful planning and R&D, Kanthal, a division of Sandvik, is pleased to announce our U and W Radiant Tube product release! The following is an excerpt from the official press release which may be found here.

The launch of Sandvik's new tube program addresses furnace operator's desire to increase tube temperature and life length. The tubes made in Kanthal APM and Kanthal APMT are produced from powder metallurgy alloys in a hot isostatic process. The result is a material with a very uniform microstructure and excellent mechanical strength. Especially useful in high temperature carburizing and sulfidizing atmospheres, these alloys are exceptionally resistant to corrosion and sagging.
