Common Metallurgical Problems

At Metserve, we recognize that your highest priority is keeping your boiler on-line and running smoothly. When a problem does occur, getting an accurate diagnosis of the root cause is essential.


Our database covers over three decades of metallurgical issues. In that time, we have amassed thousands of failure investigations related to boilers and have compiled a database of common metallurgical problems. Often certain types of failures are concentrated in a specific area of the boiler.

If you have any problems in your boiler, take advantage of the twenty six years of Metserve metallurgical expertise. We would be happy to diagnose the issue, and help formulate a solution.
