Radiator Repair
Our radiator repair service addresses leaks, cracks, and performance issues in commercial and industrial vehicle cooling systems. Using advanced brazing techniques and premium materials, we restore radiators to optimal functionality while maintaining factory specifications. With both traditional repair and complete aluminum rebuild options available, our technicians ensure reliable temperature regulation for heavy-duty equipment.
DPF Cleaning
We provide comprehensive diesel particulate filter maintenance using aqueous cleaning technology that safely removes soot and contaminants without damaging substrates. Our process includes pressure testing, camera inspection, and performance verification to ensure compliance with emission standards. This non-invasive approach preserves filter integrity while extending service life for fleet operators and individual owners.
Fuel Tank Repair
Specializing in both steel and aluminum fuel tank restoration, we address corrosion, leaks, and structural damage through professional welding and reinforcement techniques. Our aluminum wrap-around strap system offers cost-effective solutions that restore tank functionality to 80% less than replacement costs. All repairs include pressure testing and coating applications to prevent future degradation.
SCR Recore
Our SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) recore service replaces damaged internal components while retaining original housing units. This cost-efficient solution maintains factory fitment while incorporating new catalyst materials that meet current emission requirements. Each recored unit receives a 3-year warranty and undergoes rigorous performance testing before customer return.
Aluminum Welding
We offer precision aluminum welding and brazing services for commercial vehicle components, including radiators, charge air coolers, and custom fabricated parts. Our certified technicians utilize specialized equipment to create durable, leak-proof joints that meet industry standards. This service supports both repair work and custom manufacturing of heavy-duty cooling system components.
