Pipe and Flange Tools

Main tool types for pipes and flanges

The most important tool groups in this area include:

• flange spreaders for controlled opening of flanged joints
• tools for aligning and loosening flange connections
• manual pressure testing pumps for mobile, smaller tests
• electric pressure testing pumps for larger volumes and frequent tests

Typical applications of pipe and flange tools

Pipe and flange tools are used in many applications, for example:

• installation and commissioning of heating and cooling systems
• pressure and leak testing of water and process piping
• maintenance and shutdown work in chemical, oil and gas plants
• service work in district heating, power plants and industrial sites
• periodic re-testing according to regulatory requirements

Benefits of dedicated pipe and flange tools

• safe working without improvised tools
• controlled opening and testing of flanged joints
• reduced risk of damage to sealing faces and pipework
• time- and cost-efficient testing and maintenance procedures

Selecting the right tool

When selecting tools for pipes and flanges, consider test pressure, pipe size and pressure rating, test medium and expected test frequency. Mobility, ease of use and applicable standards or documentation requirements should also be taken into account.
