Welding Sealing Rings On Two-Piece Containment Box

 





This is a two-piece containment box known as a Clamp designed to go over Valves, Flanges, etc. that are leaking on a system that cannot be shut down. The Machinist will bolt the clamp in place (over the leaking item) then start pumping in a high temp compound encapsulating the leak so they can run until the next shut down. Refineries mainly use these. I was called to weld the sealing rings that surround the pipe itself and the Box Seal at the separation point. 

EXPERTISE:
  • Commercial Work, Classic restorations, Custom Exhaust, Frames, Structural welding
  • Small to large scale piping jobs that operate under high pressure and temperature service, sanitary welding
  • Platform construction and repairs including redesigning and or replacement
  • Custom fabrication of guards, handrails, safety covers, and shields to comply with OSHA and Cal OSHA regulations.
  • Overlay and weld build-up using Stellite and other hard-facing Alloys.

All Of My Jobs Are Interesting. Large and Small. - Croz Custom Metal Fabrication






This job is a little different, but just as much fun. These doors were not hung properly and were hitting the side walls when trying to fully open them which ripped the hinges off the base. I had to remove the door hinges, fabricate 2 each of 2” x 3” x ¼” rectangle tubing so I could extend the mounting position of the door hinges so when fully open, would clear the front wall.

Often times it doesn’t really matter how it’s done just so it’s right when I leave.

Mobile Repair Of Machine To Break Up Concrete Runway








This was a fascinating job done for Antigo Construction out of Idaho who was contracted to break up a runway at Travis Air Force Base in Northern CA.

These brutal machines are remotely operated and have a 20,000 lbs. guillotine type breaker bar that is used to break (pulverize) concrete down to a depth of 3’ (36”). Not only does the breaker bar bit wear out, but these machines literally destroy themselves over time.

Here's a YouTube video example of this type of machine:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mJBo0niBrk

I spent many hours replacing the breaker bar bits and repairing cracks in the mast carriage as well as the frame structure which is also the hydraulic fluid reservoir. Once a crack develops the machine has to be shut down and the failure repaired to minimize the environmental impact from oil loss.

EXPERTISE:

  • Commercial Work, Classic restorations, Custom Exhaust, Frames, Structural welding
  • Small to large scale piping jobs that operate under high pressure and temperature service, sanitary welding
  • Platform construction and repairs including redesigning and or replacement
  • Custom fabrication of guards, handrails, safety covers, and shields to comply with OSHA and Cal OSHA regulations.
  • Overlay and weld build-up using Stellite and other hard facing Alloys.

Ornamental Welding Expertise - Croz Custom Metal Fabrication








Completed Project

This is why I need a C-23 license with CSLB.

(https://www.cslb.ca.gov/About_Us/Library/Licensing_Classifications/C-23_-_ORNAMENTAL_METAL.ASPX)

I have that license so I can do these fun ornamental projects.. The images shown are decorative Trellises in front of Lennar at Innovations living community in Freemont. I did this welding job for Column Concepts of Benicia. Prior to the welding, these are ratchet-strapped together as I tap weld them, then I can start removing the straps as I go, then start welding these together.
