PT&P designed and fabricated eighteen graphite slide plates for a refinery project in India. These plates are made of graphite sheets with thicknesses of 6mm and 12mm. The overall dimensions of the plates are 3/8″ x 19-11/16″ x 19-11/16″ and 3/8″ x 61″ x 61″. The plates will be tack welded on top of big ton spring supports in the refinery to minimize frictional effects.
Do you see a need for slide plates in your piping system? Let us price them for you today!
