Heat Exchanger Materials

We supply heat exchanger manufacturers and oilfield equipment fabricators with corrosion-resistant plate and tubing products used in condensers, reboilers, and process heaters.

• Stainless steel for heat exchanger manufacturing in 304 and 316 grades

We process stainless and carbon steel for heat exchanger applications with mill certifications, custom packaging, and consistent surface protection using PVC coating in black, white, clear, or laser-grade film.

Aluminum Components for Oilfield Equipment

In addition to carbon and stainless steel, Reliance Metalcenter is a supplier of aluminum used in the construction of skid frames, enclosures, and offshore systems. Our flat-rolled aluminum products are available in heat-treatable and common alloys suitable for forming and welding.
