Products

Our core products are copper heat pipes — sintered, grooved, and composite types — made end-to-end in our Shenzhen factory. Sizes and forming are built to your drawing; our standard tolerances are listed below.

Heat Pipe Types

Three wick constructions cover different performance and cost requirements. Choose by application, or send your drawing and we will confirm feasibility before you commit.

Type Available Length Range Typical Use
Sintered wick D4 / D5: 60–350 mm · D6 / D7: 60–410 mm · D8: 60–580 mm General electronics cooling, orientation-independent operation
Grooved wick D6 / D8: 60–580 mm Cost-sensitive designs with moderate heat loads
Composite wick D6: 60–410 mm · D8: 60–580 mm High heat flux with flexible mounting orientation

Standard Specifications

Outer diameters from D3 to D12 mm; total length 50–600 mm depending on diameter and wick type. Drawings outside these ranges can be evaluated — ask first.

Specification Value
Available outer diameters D3, D4, D5, D6, D7, D8, D10, D12 mm (others on request)
Tube material Oxygen-free copper; wall thickness tolerance 0.03 mm
Surface treatment Nickel plating, passivation
Min. flattened thickness D4 / D5: 2.0 mm · D6: 2.5 mm · D8: 3.0 mm

Minimum bend radius depends on diameter and wall thickness:

Diameter Wall 0.3 mm Wall 0.4 mm Wall 0.5 mm
D4 / D5 R ≥ 8 mm — —
D6 R ≥ 11 mm R ≥ 10 mm R ≥ 9 mm
D7 R ≥ 15 mm — —
D8 R ≥ 16 mm R ≥ 16 mm R ≥ 12 mm

How It Works

Copper shell, wick structure, deionized water working fluid. By two-phase heat transfer (evaporation and condensation), a heat pipe’s effective thermal conductivity reaches 100–1000× that of solid copper — with no noise, no moving parts, and no external power.

How a sintered heat pipe works: heat in at the evaporator, capillary return through the wick, heat out at the condenser
How it works — heat in at the evaporator, capillary return through the wick, heat out at the condenser.
