Maus Italia is a leader in its field

Maus Italia is a world leader in the manufacture of tools and machinery for the production and maintenance of heat exchangers, condensers and boilers.

What we offer to our customers ranges from an individual special mandrel to completely automatic machinery able to perform more operations, all of which are completely designed and directly manufactured by Maus Italia.

Tube expanders

Maus Italia is a company specialized in the production and marketing of tube expanders. The R Series, produced exclusively by Maus Italia, stands out for its expansion range, reliability and performance.

Tube expanders are tools built with heat-treated alloy steels and they are characterized by their wear- and fatigue-resistance. They are composed by four main parts: the cage, the mandrel, the rolls and the collar. Tube expansion operation is a cold mechanical deformation process that achieves a tight seal between the tube and the tube sheet.

The tube expander, constructed with heat-treated alloy steels that are resistant to wear and tear, is composed of four main parts: the cage, the mandrel, the rollers and the bearing collar.

Tube rolling is a cold mechanical deformation process which achieves a tight coupling between the tube and the tubesheet.

Selecting a tube expander is subject to knowing a number of technical parameters: the external diameter of the tube, the thickness of the tube, the length of expansion or thickness of the tubesheet and finally, the characteristics of the material to be rolled.

Tube rolling is rooted in the industrial England of the 1800s when the increase in the consumption of energy and large investments in industry and production created the need to build bigger and more diverse heat exchangers.

R Series tube expanders

The R Series is a complete range of tube expanders exclusively designed and manufactured by Maus Italia for the rolling of tubes in heat exchangers and boilers.

The R Series tube expanders with different adjustable depth are divided into two categories: R with 3 rollers and 5R with 5 rollers.

Thanks to their wide range, they can roll tubes from 6,35 mm up to 76,20 mm ( from 1/4″ up to 3″ ).

The R Series adjustable depth tube expanders have been designed for rolling tubes in heat exchangers and boilers.

The 5R series tube expanders have five rollers to overcome the problems resulting from rolling thin-walled tubes, particularly those made of titanium.
