The Flange Skillet has revolutionized the above water and underwater pipeline installation process by modifying the way flange gaskets are installed on the flange faces of adjacent pipe sections. This product makes the entire process more efficient, faster, and much safer than ever before. The Skillet enhances the process so much that it pays for itself twenty times over in increased efficiency. Benefits such as lower barge fees, increased diver safety, and getting the pipelines working faster are just a few of the ways the Flange Skill will transform your business.

The Skillet drastically reduces the risk of finger injuries as it is designed so that the installer holds onto the skillet itself to complete the installation. The flange itself is also protected by the device, which keeps the majority of foreign material out of the faces of the flange, as well as allowing for better overall manageability. The handle of the skillet contains a breakaway point at the O.D. of the flange, which can enable a flange protector to be installed. The Flange Skillet is manufactured out of steel or Micarta, a non-conductive material. Steel is used for all diameters greater than twelve inches.

The same facility that manufactures many items for the United States Military, the United States Automotive Industry, and NASA produces this product. The Skillet is made to precise standards and specifications, and undergoes a meticulous screening process to ensure quality is never compromised. With a reasonable price range of $100 to $900, and a wide variety of sizes ranging from two inches to forty-eight inches, this item will greatly enhance your efficiency and productivity for a very small investment.

To give you a clearer image of just how much your business can benefit from the Flange Skillet, think about this data: depending upon the abilities of the installer, the equipment used, weather and water conditions, and the size of the project, a pipeline installation can take between three to eight hours to complete. The Skillet can save sixty to seventy-five percent of labor costs by reducing installation time by two to three hours. Considering a barge can cost $10,000 per hour or $250,000 per day, reducing installation time by just two hours can save $20,000 in barge fees alone. If the project consists of ten separate installations, a total savings of $400,000 can be expected. These savings are just for barge fees; imagine how much could be saved by a reduction in dive time or other installation expenses. In addition to your company saving money, the pipeline is completed faster, which results in the buyer getting their product quicker than expected.
