Applications
Supporting critical bolting operations across industries
- Pipeline and flange connections
- Pressure vessels and process equipment
- Heavy machinery and equipment assembly
- Power generation facilities
- Shutdown and turnaround projects
- Bolt load verification and assessment
- Support controlled tightening of bolted pipeline and flange joints to meet specified assembly requirements. Appropriate tooling and tightening sequences help achieve the intended joint performance during installation, maintenance, and repair activities.
- Bolting solutions for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and process equipment where joint assembly requires careful control. Procedures should follow applicable engineering specifications and equipment manufacturer recommendations.
- Hydraulic torquing and tensioning tools support the assembly and maintenance of heavy industrial equipment. Correct tool selection helps address demanding fastener sizes, access constraints, and specified tightening requirements.
- Support bolted joint maintenance across power generation equipment and associated industrial systems. Tooling and procedures are selected to suit the joint design, maintenance scope, and required assembly or verification process.
- Bolting equipment and on-site services for scheduled plant shutdowns, inspections, and maintenance programmes. Coordinated tooling and execution planning can help support efficient completion of critical bolting activities within project schedules.
- Ultrasonic measurement can help assess bolt elongation and estimate preload where the method is suitable. Results can support joint evaluation and verification against the applicable engineering or project acceptance criteria.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between torquing and bolt tensioning?
Torquing applies rotational force to a fastener to achieve the required tightening condition. Bolt tensioning uses hydraulic force to stretch a bolt directly before the load is transferred to the joint during the procedure.
Does Coreserv provide hydraulic bolting tool rentals?
Tool rental requirements can be assessed based on the application, equipment needed, project duration, and availability. Contact the team with your bolting requirements to discuss suitable options.
What is ultrasonic bolt load measurement?
It is a measurement technique that uses ultrasonic signals to assess bolt elongation and estimate bolt load. Suitability depends on the fastener, material, measurement setup, and application procedure.
Can torquing and tensioning be performed on-site?
On-site service requirements can be assessed according to the joint type, access conditions, tooling needs, project scope, and applicable safety procedures.
What details are needed to request a quotation?
Provide the bolt size and type, joint or flange details, required torque or preload if specified, operating conditions, location, expected project dates, and whether you need equipment rental, measurement, or on-site services.
