Dished ends

Dished end manufacturer in Morocco

Friginox opened the first department in Morocco dedicated to cold-forming dished ends. We produce elliptical, torispherical and hemispherical heads to each project’s dimensions, in stainless steel, carbon steel and aluminium.

Heads close tanks, vessels and pressure equipment. Their geometry, their thickness and how well they fit the shell decide how the equipment behaves in service, so we form them in the same workshop as the shells they close.

We supply heads on their own, to other fabricators and engineering offices, as well as heads built into our own equipment.
