accounts include propane tanks, military vehicles, farm equipment, structural steel
STAINLESS STEEL – when working on stainless it’s important to remember there is more heat generated – typical accounts include
food processing, pressure vessels, hot water tanks, ship & rail containers

trailers, dry boxes, fencing, boat repair
