I appreciate the help, I don't know if this size exists, I have looked and can't find any, it needs to be 6" wide, and between 10-20" long.

I looked all over and can't find anything that size...this is purely speculation, could you get a 3 ft. length of slant fin, cut it in 2 equal lengths and connect one end with a "U" and compression fittings on the other. Might be a fun $30.00 experiment.

What are you doing? If you are trying to heat a house, what you are looking for probably won't work. And it should have three passes so it can transfer enough heat.

Should have kept this on the other thread. Any way, you will not get enough heat transfer to make enough difference with this small of an exchanger.
