Boiler Tube Repairs

As a cost-efficient alternative to replacement, Aquilex can help you determine the feasibility of repairing boiler tubes without sacrificing reliability.

If replacement is required, Aquilex will use specialized tooling and experienced craft to perform localized or complete component change-outs faster than conventional approaches.

Aquilex’s staff of metallurgists can assist with alloy selection for all high-temperature corrosion mechanisms, and our solutions can be completed in our shop or in the field with rapid response and turnaround. Our overlay equipment inventory and highly-specialized craft workforce are among the largest in the world.

We are committed to continuous investment in automation, technology and training, including proprietary equipment, to meet the unique needs of our customers. Our Tenth Generation (GenTen System®) weld overlay system is the unique result of that continuous improvement. It offers less operator interaction, higher reliability, greater productivity with assured quality of overlay.

Specialty Repair & Overhaul (SRO) automation is also unique in its ability to operate in unusual configurations, i.e., overhead or on elliptical or cone-shaped components. Collectively, these features deliver proven reliability at lower than replacement costs.

Machine Orbital Welding

With hundreds of orbital equipment systems in Aquilex’s QuikArc® Program, you can be assured of the best performing equipment, operated by highly trained and experienced personnel. We design and build all of our field production equipment, making us experts at adapting the equipment for difficult jobs. Our personnel operate orbital equipment systems in the field every day and are particularly aware of the advantages of orbital welding over manual welding.

Weld Metal Overlay

SRO advantages come from heavy investment and research into the technologies of machine-applied weld metal overlay. The resulting information is used in engineering the appropriate final solution and then designing and building the best overlay equipment systems in the world for the exclusive use by our trained and experienced application craftsmen.

Aquilex is one of the largest producers and suppliers of weld metal overlay services and fabrications in the world and is one of the largest suppliers of machine weld overlay services to any specific industry.
