SWi20/25TI Flange Spreader Kit

Flange spreading, Flange aligning, or Flange Closing has long been a problem for maintenance and installation personnel. Unsafe practices, equipment damage, and worker productivity created a need for safe simple tools. We met this need with a line of Flange Alignment Tools, Flange Spreaders, Flange Closing Tools, and Precision Lifting Wedges, and is now the innovative leader in supplying safe Flange Maintenance tools to all types of industry.

Performing work on various types of bolted flanges usually requires the use of tools, from the simple hammer and wedge, or pry bar, to powerful hydraulic operated devices.  Separating flanges to replace gaskets or blinds, aligning flanges prior to bolt-up or, the closing of flanges can be hazardous and time consuming.  We have developed a line of flange maintenance tools to enhance worker safety and productivity.
