Presswork and Hot Flanging is a specialist field in heavy boilermaking repairs and rebuilds. The manufacture of replacement flanged parts for all types of steam boiler is key in rebuilding a boiler to its original design.
These days there are fewer tools around to carry out some of the intricate presswork and flanging which was once common, but we have preserved those skills and are able to turn our hand to pretty much any shape or size of component. In many case this specialised service has proved essential in preserving vintage steam boilers. We can press or form the following:
- Outer Firebox Backheads
- Firebox Endplates
- Throatplates
- Smokebox Tubeplates
- Thermic Siphons
- Main Steam Pipes
- Boiler Plate Patches
