Flange Facers
Flange facing is a machining maintenance service conducted on flange surfaces. Timely maintenance and repair of flanges help avoid leakages and corrosion. These services ensure old flanges continue to maintain joint integrity between them.
EZlink offers both ID and OD mounting flange facing machines. In ID mounting, clamp legs inside of the machine are placed inside the flange. In OD, the clamp legs are pushing inwards with the machine externally mounted around the flange.
EZLINK’s reliable flange facers are easy to use for resurfacing pipe and tube flanges, with no special training required. Our flange Facers can make all common flange surface finishes; stock, phonographic or smooth finish. Surface finish depends on the selected facing tool and feed screw. Moreover Power source can be electric, pneumatic, hydraulic as well as manual.
