Protecting Flange Assemblies

PROTECT FLANGE ASSEMBLIES WITH A CORROSION INHIBITING WRAP

The Problem

Flange, valve and welded-joint corrosion costs clients millions annually!

  • Complex geometry of flanges prevents effective surface preparation and coating
  • Frozen nuts and bolts
  • Weakened weld joints
  • Loss of containment

The Impact

  • Maintenance costs
  • Downtime required for dismantling corroded flange assemblies for inspections, equipment removal, flange blinding, etc.
  • Hot work repair of severely corroded flanges adds to downtime and costs
  • Labour and equipment repairs and logistics can be costly, especially for offshore facilities
  • Unscheduled stoppages due to corrosion-related leaks.
