Increase Tool Life On Tough Materials: Benefit Of Tapping Spears

2023-05-24T11:21:56-05:00

In recent years, the use of exotic materials in heat exchanger tubing has become a lot more common. While these materials are great for working in tough conditions, they can have be very challenging to work with as they often require more tooling and job time. This is especially true in tube removal where pulling spears are used. Tapping spears have become an effective way to overcome many of these issues.
