Elite Dismantling Ltd are specialist thermic lancing contractors.
Many materials such as cast iron, refractory and
reinforced concrete are difficult or slow to cut.
Elite Dismantling can provide the experience and expertise to resolve
these types of cutting problems by carrying out thermic lancing, which
is a hot cutting process using an exothermic reaction to generate temperatures
in excess of 3000 degrees C. The thermic lancing operation is high speed
and can cut through 300mm square cast steel in less than 3 minutes. The
thermic lancing process can be used to cut, pierce or bore holes in most
ferrous and non ferrous metals. On engineering,
demolition, foundry and
construction sites pins and shafts can get jammed in their housings, and
thermic lancing can be the quickest way to remove them.
The advantages of using the thermic lance as opposed
to conventional cutting methods and techniques are
mainly due to the speed at which it works and the
lack of noise and vibration. Click for details of
