Flange Spreader

Hydraulic Wedge Spreader

Struggling with jammed flange connections or tight access during pipeline maintenance? The ABS Hydraulic Flange Spreaders (HF-FS Series) use a precision wedge mechanism inserted between flanges to apply controlled hydraulic pressure, safely separating them without damage. This powerful method ensures safer, faster, and more predictable disassembly compared to risky manual approaches—reducing downtime, improving operator safety, and protecting your equipment.
Features

Features: The Controlled Wedge Mechanism

ABS hydraulic flange spreaders are engineered for maximum safety, efficiency, and reliability:

  • Controlled Pressure: The hydraulic wedge applies force gradually, ensuring safe and predictable flange separation.

  • Damage Prevention: Eliminates the need for hammers, chisels, or excessive manual force—protecting flange faces and sealing surfaces.

  • Fast & Efficient: Enables quicker separation compared to time-consuming manual methods, significantly improving job productivity.

  • Access Behind Flanges: Creates the gap needed to access gaskets, spool pieces, and internal components.

  • Reduced Jaw Thickness: High-strength, hardened steel jaws with minimal thickness fit into extremely tight flange gaps.

  • Double Wedge (EMK Models): Dual hydraulic wedges provide increased spreading force and capacity for the toughest jobs.


Why Choose ABS Hydraulic Flange Spreaders

ABS provides reliable, high-force tools designed for demanding industrial environments:

  • Enhanced Safety: Greatly reduces the risk of operator injury and prevents uncontrolled flange movement.

  • High Force Output: Up to 25 TON per spreader head—or 50 TON in EMK double-wedge models—ideal for corroded or seized flanges.

  • Operational Efficiency: Controlled hydraulic action reduces labor time, eliminates guesswork, and minimizes rework.

  • Local Support & Rentals: Available with full ABS technical support, including Dry Rental and Supervised Rental services.


Applications

ABS Hydraulic Flange Spreaders are essential for maintenance and disassembly tasks in:

  • Pipeline Operations: Safe separation of flange joints for gasket replacement or spool removal.

  • Maintenance & Inspection: Creating precise separation to access components behind flange faces.

  • Industrial Equipment Repair: Assisting in the disassembly and alignment of large bolted assemblies.

The flange spreader boasts several key features:Ease of Use: The tool is easy, light, and highly practical to use, ensuring user-friendly operation. Accurate Height Adjustments: It facilitates accurate height adjustments, allowing tasks such as shaft alignment to be easily executed by a single person. Package Models: Package models are available, and interested parties are advised to get in touch with authorized distributors for specific details. Space Efficiency: Particularly suitable for situations where available space is limited, with an adjustable range from 5 to 40mm.Reduced Thickness of Jaws: The jaws, made of high-quality hardened steel, have a reduced thickness. This feature allows the flange spreader to be used effectively in jobs where working space is extremely limited.Versatile for Maintenance and Repair: The flange spreader is ideal for numerous industrial maintenance and repair jobs, showcasing its versatility across a range of applications.

The flange spreader is designed with jaws made of high-quality hardened steel, and these jaws have a reduced thickness. This design feature enhances the tool's versatility by allowing it to be used effectively in jobs where working space is extremely limited. The reduced thickness of the jaws is particularly advantageous in confined spaces, enabling the flange spreader to address tasks with spatial constraints effectively.

The capacity of a flange spreader varies depending on the model and design. Common capacities range from a few tons to several tons, allowing for the controlled separation of flanges.

A flange spreader is used to safely and precisely separate flanges during maintenance, repair, or installation processes. It prevents damage to flange surfaces and facilitates easy access for other tasks.

A pop-it tool is a type of flange spreader that utilizes hydraulic force to exert controlled pressure, causing the flanges to separate. This tool ensures a safe and efficient method of spreading flanges.
