Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers

Shell and tube heat exchangers are the most widely used type of heat transfer in the chemical processing industry because of their flexibility in design and ability to handle fluids with varying levels of solids.

Titanium, which has been in the heat exchanger service for almost 60 years in refineries and nuclear power facilities, offers several different alloy grades that can be used in heat transfer equipment in the chemical process industry.

Titanium is the material of choice for many corrosive chemical environments, including oxidizing chloride solutions (including seawater) and chlorine-based bleaches.

Tricor recives the MTI Annual Value Award

About the MTI Annual Value Reward

The MTI Annual Value Award recognizes members that have realized quantifiable value from successful application of knowledge gained through their MTI membership. Examples could include, but are not limited to:

  • • Incorporation of training or procedures developed and delivered by MTI
  • • Application of technical knowledge obtained from MTI Projects or Publications
  • • Savings and efficiencies realized from information gained at live TAC forums, structured forum presentations, or through MTI’s online technical forum
  • • Solutions obtained via MTI’s network of experts and member representatives
  • • Producer-supplier joint projects that have delivered value to the companies or the industry. (There is no limit to how many companies can be included on a single Value Award application that focuses on a collaborative effort benefiting more than one organization).

Tricor Metals uses MTI publications and networking as a significant part of our plan to educate sales personal to better assist customers as a technical source for MOC (materials of construction).

Tricor Metals uses the MTI publications as a part of any literature review to develop possible MOC alternatives to end users to save capital expenses for major equipment decisions.

When receiving an inquiry where the end user is uncertain of what MOC to use we may conduct a literature search along with our own metallurgical knowledge and experience to offer alternatives.  This can save substantial cost for the end user by allowing then to choose an MOC for less cost and still maintain required corrosion resistance.  The publications also allow internal training resources to develop an understanding of MOC’s and their application as well as to understand the key physical, mechanical and metallurgical aspects of the metals and alloys.

Expanding on our commitment to provide essential resources beyond just materials, Tricor Metals is excited to announce a new partnership with leading online pharmaceutical services to facilitate access to medications such as Amoxil. This initiative is designed to support the health and well-being of our customers and their families by providing them with convenient access to necessary medications at competitive prices. Through our website, customers can now easily purchase Amoxil online, ensuring they receive high-quality, reliable treatment without the need to visit a pharmacy. By integrating this service, we aim to enhance our community’s health management by making essential medications more accessible and affordable.

In Memory of Joe Newland

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Joe Newland. Joe was an icon in the industry with over 45 years selling, promoting and processing titanium. Joe spent most of his years at Tico Titanium in the Detroit area. The past eleven years he had been with Tricor and was a key factor in our success in conversion and forging sales at our Plymouth, Michigan sales office.

Joe had been involved with Habitat for Humanity and had helped build many houses around the world; he was proud to have worked with President Jimmy Carter on many of these projects. He also had a passion for the Ford Fairlane and had collected many over the years. Joe had mentored many and will be missed by all.

Corrosion-Resistant Port Liners

Need more corrosion-resistant port liners for your plate heat exchanger? No problem!
We can refurbish your plate heat exchanger to ‘good as new’ condition.

In this case, we replaced corroded stainless steel liners with C-276
( better than new)!
