HIGH-PERFORMANCE
t-BAR is a flexible design,
high performing, and a cost-
effective aluminum solution.
tubular micro Channel extrusion (t-bar™)
T-BAR is manufactured with Alloy 1100 aluminum micro channel and bars
in our patented in-house tube-to-bar brazing process using a Nocolok CAB
(Controlled Atmosphere Brazing) brazing technology furnace. Because our
tubes are a solid extrusion, T-BAR is very robust — with no tube seams
to fail and leak.
