Description

Where a raised socket cannot be used — most commonly a ship's tweendeck — the flush deck socket welds in level with the surrounding plate instead of standing proud. Supplied in four configurations — single, double side-by-side, double end-to-end and quad, each carrying its own SKU — with a top-plate thickness of 16 mm or 28 mm matched to the tank-top thickness, standard pitches of 203/365/258 mm (others on request), and DNV-GL class approval. Every unit is tightness tested before dispatch.
