Level 1 Recertification

Wing nuts and segments are removed to reveal all inspection points. Sub (male, female and threaded) ends are cleaned for thorough visual and NDE inspection. UT inspection is performed at various OEM or customer designated locations for minimum wall thickness. Nuts are ground to remove and repair irregularities of the wings; seals and retainer rings are replaced with new, and thoroughly greased. Magnetic particle inspection (for surface irregularities/cracks) is performed upon customer request. Equipment passing each previous stage of inspection is hydro tested at CWP and banded with the serial number, date tested, and CWP. Equipment failing initial hydro test will be disassembled, re-kitted and re-tested. Paint is available upon request. Inspection reports are prepared and provided to the customer in either hard copy or digital format.

Level 2 Recertification

All the benefits of Level 1 Recertification, plus complete disassembly and rebuild, including all new rebuild kits.
