U-Shaped Radiant Tube for Industrial Furnaces
FH® Alloy manufactures U-shaped radiant tubes for industrial furnaces, heat treatment furnaces, and indirect heating systems.
The U-shaped configuration provides a large radiant heating surface within a compact furnace space and is widely used where the combustion process needs to be separated from the furnace atmosphere.
Our U-shaped radiant tubes can be customized according to customer drawings, furnace dimensions, operating temperature, burner configuration, and service conditions.
Product Overview
U-shaped radiant tubes consist of two straight tube sections connected by a curved return section, forming a compact heating circuit.
This configuration is suitable for industrial furnace applications requiring:
As shown in the product, the tube assembly can also be supplied with mounting plates, insulation/support blocks, and customized installation structures according to furnace requirements.

Material Options
Material selection is one of the most important factors affecting radiant tube service life.
FH® Alloy can manufacture U-shaped radiant tubes from different heat-resistant alloys according to the actual operating conditions.
Typical options include:
Material selection should consider not only furnace temperature, but also:
Designed for Indirect Heating
U-shaped radiant tubes are commonly used in furnace systems where direct flame contact with the workpiece must be avoided.
During operation, the burner heats the inside of the radiant tube. Heat is then transferred through the tube wall and radiated into the furnace chamber.
This design helps provide:
Typical Applications
U-shaped radiant tubes are widely used in:
They are particularly suitable for furnace systems requiring indirect gas-fired or radiant heating.
Manufacturing & Fabrication
For U-shaped radiant tubes, the quality of the bend section, welded joints, straight tubes, and mounting structure directly affects dimensional stability and service performance.
Depending on the design, the production process may include:
Material Preparation → Tube Fabrication → Bend/Elbow Preparation → Assembly → Welding → Machining → Dimensional Inspection → Surface Cleaning → Final Inspection
Key manufacturing controls include:
