Product Overview
Equalizer flange closing tools are simple lightweight hydraulic tools designed to pull together flanges prior to the application of bolts. Utilizing tandem hydraulic cylinders to create a very low profile allows the tools to be used on small diameter flanges with limited access as well as on larger flanges. It is recommended that a minimum of two flange closing tools be used when flange pulling to enable the operator to maintain an even gap between flange faces and prevent flange/gasket damage.
