Flange separators tools are a useful addition to the on-site engineer’s arsenal of flange maintenance tools. These industrial tools are available in a range of configurations, and as the name suggests they’re used to assist in the separation of pipe flange joints. Typical projects include pipeline construction, commissioning, routine maintenance or when valves or pumps need to be replaced.

Types of flange separator
Three common types include the expanding wedge type, expanding collets, and Mini-gap flange spreaders that use a fixed size wedge. The expanding wedge type are available with either a hydraulic cylinder, or using a mechanically operated mechanism. The expanding collet and mini-gap types use mechanically operated mechanisms only.
