INNOVATION IN ITS MOST FUNCTIONAL FORM
INNOVATION
Driven by our desire to achieve the best
performance from the very latest technology,
the EqualizerTM range consists of award-winning tools designed to go one step
further than traditional working methods or
competitor products.
SAFETY
Safety is paramount and every EqualizerTM
tool is designed with safety first. We believe
that no job is worth doing if it cannot be
done safely. Our products aim to minimise
risk as they are simple to use with easy
maintenance to ensure ongoing reliability.
COST EFFICIENCY
In todays climate of strict budgetary
control, Equalizer International has
developed reliable tools which have been
proven to save costly downtime. The same
tools can be used during commissioning,construction, routine maintenance and
shutdowns/outages.
SIMPLICITY
Using state-of-the-art technology, Equalizer
International has produced tools which
simplify complex and problematic tasks.
EqualizerTM flange alignment, flange
spreading and precision lifting tools are
quick and easy to use. All products are
supported by a straightforward step by step
instruction manual. Advice and training is
available from Equalizer International or our
highly trained worldwide distributors.
FROM DAY ONE, AT EQUALIZER INTERNATIONAL, we have always been
passionate about finding new, simple, safe solutions to common industrial
challenges. First established in Scotland in 1994, at the heart of the North Sea oil
and gas industry, our aim has always been to deliver safe, innovative yet practical
tools to industry. As experienced engineers looking for safer methods of flange
alignment, we started life as Future Alignments Ltd. Our name may have changed but
our philosophy remains the same through innovation and dedication come
simplicity, safety and therefore success.
Our commitment to technological leadership has resulted in the Equalizer TM range
which is now marketed across the globe. Customers buy from us because of our
reputation for developing tools which quite simply do the job well.
The EqualizerTM range has grown significantly over the years, thanks to our
continuing drive to introduce new technology we are always looking for creative,
safer, easier ways. The EqualizerTM range now consists of precise, time-saving modern
day tools for aligning and spreading flange joints, as we ll as unique precision lifting
equipment.
We listen carefully to our customers and continually identify opportunities for new
products. Our tools are used every day throughout the world in a number of different
industries from oil to water, mining to petrochemicals, gas to nuclear. As our
customers businesses change, so do their requirements, and at Equalizer
International we will continue to develop safe, simple and cost effective solutions
to meet the challenges of industry today and tomorrow.

INNOVATION IN ITS MOST FUNCTIONAL FORM
INNOVATION
FOR
INDUSTRY.Our highly skilled design team has hands-on experience of working with
flange alignment, flange spreading and precision lifting tools; we
harness this experience to provide the answers to everyday industrialproblems.
We listen carefully to our customers and anticipate market changes to
develop the right tools to do the job better than before. Each one of
our products has been designed in response to very specific needs;
either a technical requirement to perform a job previously thought
impossible; a request for a job to be done more safely or a call for
better cost efficiency on a project. Our specialist tools have won
nominations and awards for design and innovation from as far afield as
Cuba and Canada.
The EqualizerTM range provides tools which are versatile allowing
almost every type of flange joint to be aligned or separated, and heavy
equipment to be safely lifted. Innovation safe and simple.
CREATIVE THINKING IS ALL
PART OF THE SERVICE AT
EQUALIZER INTERNATIONAL.
