Controlled Bolting

Lock In Performance

Keep Every Joint Tight, Compliant, and Catastrophe-Free

When bolted joints fail, the consequences aren’t small — they’re devastating. A single improperly tightened flange can lead to leaks, fires, explosions, injuries, environmental damage, and multi-million-dollar outages. Yet, many facilities still operate without a standardized bolting program, leaving critical connections exposed to risk and inconsistency.

TEAM closes that gap with a complete joint integrity solution, integrated under our TEAM360 platform. We go beyond basic torque and tension to deliver full-scope control: from upfront load calculations and engineered procedures to certified execution, inspection, validation, and digital traceability. Every bolt is tightened to spec. Every flange is sealed leak-free. Every action is backed by real-time data and audit-ready documentation.

Whether it’s a single hot bolting job or a site-wide turnaround, our ASME PCC-1-certified technicians work seamlessly with our inspection, planning, and repair teams to ensure safe, repeatable results under pressure. Backed by mobile bolting units, digital QA tools, and 50+ years of field expertise, TEAM delivers confidence across every connection—no matter the size or scenario.

Control The Outcome

Here’s how our engineered bolting methods, certified techs, and digital traceability protect uptime and prevent worst-case failures.
