Header Tube Expansion - Short Mandrels


When water tube boilers do not offer easy access to the tube seat, Thomas C. Wilson, Inc. offers a variety of solutions. Our Series 38 and Series 114 Expanders are available with a series of short mandrels. Used with gear trains, right angle drives or universal joints, they make tube rolling possible through a header or handhole.
