Where you'll find them
Flange joints on heating and process pipework, boiler and flue seals, oven and kiln doors, pumps and valves in any plant installed before the mid-1980s.
The risk
Sealed in service they’re dormant; cracking a flange or stripping a boiler disturbs them. Maintenance teams need them on the asbestos register so no one opens a joint unaware.
Removal and cost
Usually handled as controlled non-licensed work during maintenance or decommissioning, wetted, removed intact and bagged at the joint. On strip-outs and demolition we sweep plant for gaskets as standard.
