PRODUCTS / FLOW CONNECTIONS

Flanges.

Pressure-containing connections sourced by design standard, rating, facing, bore, material and inspection requirement.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Defined by the requirement.

We coordinate the sourcing route around material, condition, dimensions, quantity, applicable standard, inspection, documentation and delivery. Manufacturing and processing routes are selected to suit the complete requirement.
