Bolt Removal

Protect Assets With Strategy and Precision

Protect Critical Assets, Preserve Heat Treatment Results, and Maintain Structural Integrity

During heat treatment, metals undergo significant transformations that can impact their structural integrity. Bolts, often exposed to the same extreme conditions, can become brittle, deformed, or fused to surrounding materials. TEAM’s precision Bolt Removal Services ensure these components are safely extracted without damaging critical assets or disrupting your operations.

We apply advanced techniques and decades of field experience to preserve the strength, performance, and longevity of your equipment. Whether you’re dealing with hardened fasteners in aerospace components or need to protect pressure boundaries in power generation systems, our bolt removal process guarantees safety, control, and minimal disruption.

As part of our TEAM360 service ecosystem, bolt removal is fully integrated into your broader maintenance strategy. From preheat to post-weld treatment, every phase is coordinated and traceable — ensuring thermal processes stay aligned, asset integrity is maintained, and productivity is never interrupted. With over 50 years of bolt removal experience and access to cutting-edge technology, TEAM delivers results that protects the future of your equipment.

Protect What Holds It All Together

Here’s how precision bolt removal prevents asset damage, preserves structural integrity, and sets the stage for safer, smoother maintenance.

Why It Matters

Elevate safety and structural integrity

Bolt removal is more than just a mechanical process—it’s vital for the long-term reliability of your equipment. Bolts that have been exposed to extreme heat can become brittle or deformed, posing a risk to the overall structural integrity of your assets. Proper bolt removal helps prevent potential failures, ensuring that your equipment remains safe, reliable, and ready for continued use.

Our Advanced Approach

Preserve assets while supporting growth 

Our bolt removal process employs advanced techniques that prioritize safety and precision. Using controlled heating and specialized tools, we ensure bolts are removed without affecting surrounding materials. This level of care is critical in industries where even minor damage can lead to significant risks.

+
Heat Cycling

Reduce stress and simplify extraction 

Before the removal process begins, our experts perform a detailed assessment of the bolt’s material properties and the surrounding structure. We then strategically apply heat, carefully cycling between heating and cooling phases. By gradually expanding and contracting the bolt, we reduce the stress on the surrounding material, ensuring seamless removal.

+
Precision Drilling

Target drilling for minimal impact

We use advanced drilling equipment for precise bolt removal, minimizing impact on surrounding material. This method is crucial in high-stress environments where even slight damage can lead to failures. By customizing drilling parameters, we ensure a swift and meticulous removal, leaving surrounding components intact and ready for use.

+
Extraction

Leverage custom tools for seamless extraction

We use specialized tools tailored to the bolt’s characteristics and job requirements to safely remove heat-treated bolts without damaging threads or surfaces. Our tools preserve the surrounding components’ integrity, ensuring bolts are effectively removed even in challenging conditions.
