Training as a flange fitter

Flange connection technologies are used in oil refineries, electrical switchboards, chemical factories and food production plants, among others. Different types of flanges are used to connect pipes, fittings and apparatus. Gaskets are installed between the flanges to prevent liquids or gases from escaping. Careful work and the right qualifications are required when installing gaskets. The relevant qualification can be obtained with our comprehensive flange fitter training course. 

Dangers to be aware of 

When installing flanged connections, special attention should be paid to the possibility of danger: 

  • explosion or fire, 
  • water, land and air pollution, 
  • economic losses caused by downtime during assembly and component replacement. 

Purpose of the training 

The course aims to provide trainees with a solid theoretical foundation and practical skills to perform their duties effectively. We realise that safety is crucial in today's world, so we impart knowledge on the subject and also teach how to apply it in practice. In addition to this, it is also important that installation is accurate and precise, as the quality and efficiency of the work depends on this. Our main goal is to ensure that every trainee gets the most out of his or her course and succeeds in his or her field.
