Robertshaw 11-192 Aluminum Tubing
As a seasoned tech, you know that field reliability depends on the quality of your consumables. The Robertshaw 11-192 is a professional-grade 3/16 inch aluminum tubing solution engineered specifically for high-demand HVACR gas train applications. Manufactured from 1435 alloy and meeting ASTMB Standard #483, this 50-foot roll provides the structural integrity required for pilot lines and pressure switch signal conduction. With a 0.035" wall thickness, it strikes the critical balance between being easy to flare and bend while remaining rigid enough to resist vibration fatigue in furnace and boiler compartments.
For contractors managing commercial burner setups, this aluminum pilot tubing is rated for a working pressure of 90 PSI. The high 25% elongation factor ensures you can navigate tight tolerances without kinking or work-hardening the material prematurely. Its corrosion-resistant properties make it a superior alternative to standard copper in specific gas-heavy environments, ensuring long-term signal accuracy for HVAC gas burner components. Whether you are performing a full pilot assembly overhaul or expanding a manifold, this bulk roll minimizes mechanical joints and potential leak points.
Key Benefits for the Contractor- Engineered Ductility: Precise 1435 alloy composition allows for clean, repeatable bends and flares in compact equipment cabinets.
- Industrial Compliance: Fully meets ASTMB Standard #483, ensuring consistent wall thickness and metallurgical purity across the entire 50-foot length.
- Optimized Performance: Boasts an 11,000 tensile and 9,500 yield strength, capable of handling 90 PSI system pressures common in specialized HVACR applications.
- Versatile Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with standard 3/16" compression fittings used in most Robertshaw pilot burner assemblies and gas valves.
Is this tubing suitable for high-temperature pilot ignition zones?
Yes, this aluminum tubing is specifically designed for the high-heat environment of a burner vestibule, maintaining its structural integrity far better than polymer alternatives.
Can I use standard brass compression sleeves with this 11-192 roll?
Technicians typically pair this 3/16" OD tubing with brass or specialty aluminum fittings. For the tightest seal in high-vibration gas applications, ensuring a clean flare or using a compatible 3/16" brass nut and sleeve is recommended.
How does this 1435 alloy compare to standard copper tubing for gas lines?
Aluminum is often preferred in modern HVAC systems for its weight-to-strength ratio and its natural resistance to certain corrosive elements found in combustion gases that can cause "black flake" in copper lines.
