Our Duck Foot Tin Bath Coolers are designed to provide the maximum cooling when placed in float glass line tin baths. They cool the tin from the underside by passing water through the stainless steel pipes while resting in the tin.
These Duck Foot Tin Bath Coolers are made from a single piece of stainless steel bent to provide maximum cooling via their distinctive shape. Using a special process and dies, we are able to bend them at 2.5 times the radius of the pipe without kinking and without weaking the tube at the bend. This gives them a distinctive 'duck foot' appearance. They are pre-threaded for attachment to 1" hose connections. Because they are formed from a single piece of tubing, they have an advantage over welded construction coolers: there are no internal weld points which can allow water impurities to collect and create failure points. Other tin bath coolers with welded points have a much greater potential for leaks. We coat them with Alumina Oxide to to give them additional durability when in contact with liquid tin.
These coolers can be modified to meet your specific requirements, tailoring them product to meet your requirements. We have built them using different stainless material, with shorter and taller offsets, wider center distances and different leg lengths. We have even built them without their distinctive toe configuration. An example of our ability to customize Duck Foot Coolers is the Half Duck Foot Cooler shown above. It is used for smaller spaces and lesser cooling requirements. If you have an application-specific requirement, please feel free to contact us and so that we can help meet your specific needs!

To provide additional protection from liquid tin, they can be coated with ceramic Metco 101. Our customers report satisfaction with the extended life of our coated duck foot coolers
