Heat treatment
Full suite of services to efficiently reduce stress and enhance material properties.
Weld integrity
During the welding process there is a lot of opportunity for stresses to build up. High residual stress can be a source of corrosion and cracking, while also creating brittleness. Hydrogen-induced cracking is another risk to be reckoned with during welding. All these factors can severely reduce the life-span on the welded component (pipe, structure, equipment).
Controlled heat
We can provide the full suite of heat treatment services. This includes:
-
Pre-heating and post weld heat treatment (PWHT).
-
Metal properties enhancement (e.g. normalizing, annealing).
-
Specialty services (e.g. dewaxing, refractory dry-out, debolting).
In this way stresses can be reduced, hydrogen removed, ductility and toughness increased and hardness reduced.
