2021 Picture of the Year Finalist – 08

January 19, 2026

Congratulations to Jon Ward and Chris Grice from Ward Vessel & Exchanger out of Charlotte, North Carolina, for using the H&S TOOL ODF110 SPEED FACER™ to successfully repair a heat exchanger bonnet to obtain a perfect gasket surface in accordance with their Chemical Manufacturer’s specifications.

Chris Grice of Ward’s Field Service Group says, “Climax and H&S have produced a great product that allows us to OD-mount on large heat exchanger tube sheets and mating bonnets and quickly dial in and machine these surfaces. We use them on new equipment in the shop and in repair situations in the field alike.”
