Flange facing.
On-site facing and sealing-surface restoration for marine, offshore and industrial flanges.
A sealing face is a specified surface.
A flange repair must be matched to the equipment and joint requirements. The agreed scope sets the reference geometry, machining allowance and verification method.
Small and large-diameter applications
Applications include thruster flanges, crane pedestals, pipeline and heat-exchanger flanges, valve bodies and pressure vessels.
Engine and auxiliary-system interfaces
Applications include exhaust-manifold sections, expansion-joint faces, cooling-water jacket covers, pump mounting surfaces, heat-exchanger connections and oil-cooler connection flanges.
Coupling and housing faces
The scope includes shaft coupling faces, gearbox cover and joint faces, generator coupling flanges, and alternator and pump-drive flanges.
Work at the component
Portable facing equipment is brought to the vessel or facility. Work is carried out in place where access and component geometry allow.
Potential scope.
- Review of the flange condition, damage and available material.
- Portable machining setup appropriate to the access and geometry.
- Facing within the defined scope and surface requirements.
- Final checks and a record of the machined condition.
The listed activities are a starting point for scope discussion, not a guarantee of suitability for a particular component.
What helps us evaluate the work.
- Flange size, configuration and applicable drawing or specification.
- Sealing arrangement and the required surface criteria.
- Access, equipment condition and any required isolation arrangements.
