Why Bolt Heating is Critical in Turbine Maintenance

Turbines operate under extreme thermal, mechanical, and rotational stresses. During assembly and disassembly, precise bolt heating is essential to:

  • Achieve uniform expansion for secure installation

  • Avoid thread damage and component wear

  • Maintain operational safety and reliability

The Nakai Bolt Heater’s advanced heating elements provide consistent, controlled heat, ensuring bolts expand evenly and can be installed or removed without risk to surrounding components.

Straight vs. Flexible Type – Choosing the Right Tool

Straight Type Bolt Heater

  • High-intensity, direct heating for bolts with unobstructed access

  • Best for standard turbine maintenance environments

Flexible Type Bolt Heater

  • Adaptable heating for confined, angled, or hard-to-reach bolt locations

  • Ensures precise heat delivery in challenging assembly spaces

Key Features of the Nakai Bolt Heater

  • Precision Japanese Engineering by Nichiboku – High-quality heating elements for consistent results

  • Heavy-Duty Durability – Built for repeated industrial use

  • Uniform Heat Distribution – Prevents localized overheating

  • Industrial Safety Compliance – Meets strict safety standards

The Nakai Bolt Heater – Straight & Flexible Type ensures precision bolt heating for turbines and heavy machinery. Supplied worldwide by Nichiboku Technology.
