OMS adds long-seam weld remediation to SmartGrind service

OMS has released an addition to our SmartGrind weld remediation service that will remove any excess material from long-seam welded pipes. This is particularly beneficial before applying a liner or cladding, which will adhere more effectively to smooth pipe surfaces. Any defects can be identified and remediated with targeted grinding, or the entire long-seam weld can be flushed.

Paul Eagle, OMS Sales Director, said, ‘SmartGrind has been extremely popular since its launch earlier this year and we are delighted to have added the ability to remediate long-seam welds (LSW). The addition will help clients ensure pipe surfaces are perfectly prepared for coating or cladding while also widening the range of pipe they can choose from for their projects.’
