Specialty Welding

TIMEC, through its World-Wide Welding division, provides personnel skilled in approximately 300 ASME code standard procedures and materials. Our specialty welders are tested in a 6G-restricted position confirming their ability to weld in all positions. This enables us to assess their ability to weld in tight spaces such as the return bends in convection boxes and the pigtails in reformer header boxes. TIMEC’s specialty welders consistently meet clients’ needs on highly technical welding projects where timing and quality are critical.
