Torquing & Bolting: Hand or Hydraulic Tools

All technicians are trained and certified with our tools to ensure proper setup and use of all torquing equipment.

We use Hytorc MXT and XLCT series hydraulic torque wrenches. Hand torque wrenches for smaller bolts requiring a lower torque value are Proto. All hydraulic torque tools are run using Hytorc air-powered torque pumps for safety, reliability, and accuracy.

Pipe Cutting, Beveling & Flange Resurfacing

All technicians have been trained with these tools to ensure proper installation and use.

We use Tri Tool, Climax, and Hydratight portable equipment and ID/OD mount machines.

Hydratight clam shells are OD-mount machines that can simultaneously cut and bevel pipe. The Tri Tool machine is an ID-mount unit used for pipe beveling and flange resurfacing. These ID-mount machines are self-centering for faster, easier setup. The Flange Facer is an attachment for the Tri Tool machine that allows for flange resurfacing.
