Parallel Gear Train Drives — Square Sizes 3/8" to 1"
Suitable for many expanding applications in a variety of boiler headers, Parallel Gear Drives feature inner gears with individual bronze bushings and rotate on shafts that are an integral part of the steel housing. The rigid gear shafts do not come loose, helping to maintain the perfect alignment of gears under any operating condition. Alloy steel gears are specially heat treated for maximum strength and all parts are readily replaceable. Achieve maximum service by lubricating with Texaco Starfak grease M or an equivalent. It is important to select the proper square hole size when ordering.
Extension Universal Joints Female and Male — Square Sizes 3/8" to 1"
It is useful for many applications involving expanding tubes through waterwall headers, superheaters and water legs. The integral design of the Wilson Extension Universal Joints eliminates coupling an extension with a separate universal joint. These Joints feature a working angle of 140° that matches the standard location of many tubes from the accessible hand hole.
Universal Joints Female and Male — Square Sizes 3/8" to 1"
‘GP’ Universal Joints are female square type models that smoothly rotate and deflect a common axis. These joints have an unusual strength for their size and prove popular with boiler makers.
Bi-Universal Joints are suitable for the unusual situations requiring deflecting greater than that provided by the Model GP.
Male-Female Universal Joints are suitable for use in superheater headers and have the same features as the Model GP.
Extension Couplings — 3/8" to 1" Diameter
Extension Couplings, available in both plain and reducing types, are generously proportioned and heat-treated to withstand applicable torque loads. Sockets have clearances to accommodate drive extensions and universals, to mention a few.
Drive Extensions Male — Square Sizes 3/8" to 1"
Drive Extensions are available for use with universal joints and parallel gear trains and with couplings for expander mandrels through water legs and headers.
Tube Clamps — 2", 2-1/2” and 3" Outer Diameter Tubes
Tube Clamps are designed to hold tubes while rolling at the opposite end. The clamps feature a high strength-to-weight ratio and round, flat plastic pads that allow the jaws to come together without turning or twisting.
Midget Tube End Polishing Kit
Featuring a powerful motor that weighs just 2-pounds, the entire kit weighs only 10-1/4-pounds total. This kit will save on time and assembly for brazers, welders, pipe fitters or boiler makers; in the shop or on board a ship.
Tube End Polishing Kits
This kit’s highly efficient, flexible and abrasive brush can take care of any job in one pass; saving time and money. With the ability to safely clean tube ends in just a few seconds, preparing them for sil-brazing, welding or tube rolling, the 9176 Kit includes a 4,500-RPM motor that weighs just 5-pounds (2-kilograms).
Chipping Hammer
The Series 985 Chipping Hammer is compact and lightweight. It offers a controlled chipping action that allows operators to precisely chip away only specific areas. It is ideal for chiseling, scaling and chipping. Tools available for the Series 985 Chipping Hammer include: beading tools, collapsing tools, knockout tools and chisels.
Handhole Seat Grinding Kit
The Headhole Seat Grinding Kit restores the gasket seal of any size handhole to a smooth flat surface ensuring a perfect seal when the hole is closed. The optional Alignment Indicator eliminates the guesswork in the proper alignment of the grinding wheel and seat.
Handhole Seat Cleaning Kit
The Handhole Cleaning Kit includes all the tools you need to remove rust, deposits, torn gaskets and other encrustations from boiler drums, sectional headers, plug seats, handholes and pipe flanges. It is also suitable for the surfacing of corners, tanks, stacks and bulkheads prior to painting.
Flo-Breaker
The Flo-Breaker safely cuts off excess air flow to prevent hose whipping caused by compressed air escaping from a broken hose. The Flo-Breaker is non-clogging, automatically resets and is made of stainless steel springs that are unaffected by temperature. OSHA requires that all hoses exceeding a 1/2" diameter have a safety device installed at the source of supply to reduce pressure in case of hose failure.
Pneumatic Beveling Machines — 5/8" to 3-7/8" Outer Diameter Tubes Pipes
The Pneumatic Beveling Machines can be used to remove weld or prepare tube ends prior to welding and to perform facing operations. Compact and lightweight, the machine features a reliable motor, heavy-duty bevel gear set and a choice of a crank feed or wrench feed. An internal lock holds the tool securely in position while making facing cuts or simultaneously beveling the inside and outside of light or heavy wall tubes and pipes.
Tube or Pipe End Cutters — 2" to 3" Outer Diameter Tubes, 1-1/2” to 2-1/2” Pipes
Used primarily to remove seal welds of welded boiler tubes, this high speed steel, multiple tooth cutter and rotating pilot also proves ideal for flat facing tube ends. The cutter provides diameters that are large enough to cut a minimum of 1/4" beyond the outside of the tubes. A key feature of the tools is complete interchange ability of cutters, pilots and shanks between the inside or outside chamfering cutter and flat seal weld remover tools.
Tube End Facers — 2", 2-1/2” and 3" Outer Diameter
Tube End Facers have multiple applications. Use them to prepare a uniform projection of tube ends prior to expanding or bead-rolling or to de-burr tubes after they are cut or rolled. The adjustable thrust bearing collar and high-speed steel tool bit allow for fast, easy trimming at a recommended speed of 150-RPM. The interchangeable, reversible cutter bits are easy to replace.
