How to cool Garage Door seals?

 

With more than 20 years of experience in compressed-air operated products, our clients know that we always stand behind the quality and reliability of everything we manufacture. Every month, we receive hundreds of requests from customers around the world looking for guidance on which product best suits their application.

Recently, a client from New York contacted us with a unique cooling challenge. Before exterior garage door seals can be coated in a color that matches the door and trim, the extrusion must be cooled. After several phone discussions, our engineer determined that the Model 7540 Stainless Steel Vortex Tube would significantly speed up the cooling process. However, because the customer required a more budget-friendly option, we recommended the 7540-A Anodized Aluminum Vortex Tube, which provides similar performance at a lower cost.

We frequently receive questions about the differences between our Aluminum and Stainless Steel Vortex Tubes, and this client asked the same. Aluminum offers a cost-effective solution, but if maximum durability, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance are required, the StreamtekTM Stainless Steel Vortex Tube is the better choice. Rest assured, both versions deliver long-lasting, maintenance-free performance.

Our Vortex Tube Specifications tab includes detailed information comparing aluminum and stainless steel models, as well as the different sizes available. Choosing the correct model isn’t always easy, so if you need assistance, contact us anytime and one of our engineers will help you select the right model free of charge.
