Tube Hole Serrations in a Floating Tubesheet
Tube Hole Serrations in a Floating Tubesheet
(OP)
This will sound silly, but I have a legitimate question.
Is there any reason or benefit why the floating tubesheet would NOT get tube hole serrations?
This is a Roller expanded only tube bundle (no Tube end welding)
Thanks in advance

But that said it is no different for a floating head than a fixed one.

I could see a case where the floating head is thicker and someone saying that the deeper joint will be strong enough without grooves, but that makes me suspicious of the other TS.
