Here’s some pics of an aluminum oil cooler for a LeTourneau L1850 loader. The cooler came in with the side mounting plates damaged & cracked.

Here’s some pics of a couple of custom or special machining jobs we have going on in the general machining area. The larger piece in the lathe started out from a piece of six and a half inch diameter 4140 carbon steel. The end part will be a flanged sleeve with a slot machined out [...]

Here’s some before & after pics of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger that came in. This heat exchanger is an oil cooler which is cooled by the engine coolant. This is referred to as a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger rather than an air-to-liquid unit. After we got it all cleaned up we gave it a rigorous pressure [...]

Here’s some pics of a Mesabi radiator for an electric shovel motivator power unit. There was a major oil leak which has caused a considerable build up of dirt externally on & in the fins of the Mesabi radiator tubes. In addition to the external plugging the rubber grommet seals are soft from the oil [...]
Here’s some pics of a Caterpillar 793C steering stabilizer bellcrank we delivered to one of our customers. The single bore on the one end is a split bore which we machine true & then fit with a split sleeve that we make in-house. The other end has two tapered bores which we also machine true [...]
