A Word From Drac
We faced several challenges delivering this project, most notably the complex fuel piping detail. Drac designed a double wall stainless steel tube system consisting of an inner product line welded to a larger diameter tube to function as an interstice. The custom system met and exceeded the customers’ expectations in the areas of leak monitoring and mechanical protection. The project was a great example of how Drac utilised our in-house knowledge based offering to overcome all obstacles whilst maintaining the highest levels of quality.
