Screw Repairs- Every Possible Type You Can Imagine

Broken Screws- Put back together, as many as three (3) pieces, welded and/or threaded. Bonds stronger than original undamaged sections. Cracked Flights- broken flights reconstructed: pits, holes, groves and galling welded and polished. Material burning, stagnation and degradation corrected. Welding material includes KORGUARD.
Flight Thickness Restored- Increasing to original specifications on request to ensure correct screw geometry and extend flight wear. Eroded radii repaired. Tips Re-Seated- Screw end refaced for proper tip fit.
Straightened- In many cases to .001” T.I.R.  All rebuilding and manufacturing operations between procedures to ensure minimal run out. Keyways and Splines- Repaired and replaced. Ensures timing with twins. Twists corrected.
Cracked Root- Diameters repaired even in screw with cooling holes. Screw pressure tested and dye checked and magnetic particle tested prior to shipping. Screw and Tip Threads- Repaired. Retrace screw threads, or sleeve and machine new threads, tip threads welded and re-machined. Inside and outside registers repaired.
Seal/Bearing Sections- rebuilt to avoid leaks and return grooves re-machined or added. Thermoset Tips - Diameters repaired even in screw with cooling holes. Screw pressure tested and dye checked and magnetic particle tested prior to shipping.
Mixing Pins- Installed or replaced.  Flights interrupted or reconnected. Blister and barrier rings rebuilt and incorporated on screw. Cooling Holes- Drilled, obstructions removed. Cooling rods repaired and coolant connections re-threaded.
