Transit joint is a composition of three layers: steel, pure aluminium and sea water corrosion resistant aluminium.

These three layers are homogeneously bonded together in a vacuum environment, with the aid of explosives (explosion cladded, welded or plated).

Shipping class certificate: Lloyd’s, TUV, Stoomwezen, GL, DNV, ABS, Bureau Veritas, etc.

• Short delivery time: complete production under one roof

• Excellent process control (no weather influences and circumstances)

• Because of vacuum, less explosives are required.

o As results:

   Less deformation

   Hardness of the clad plate slightly increase

• Costs saving: thin layer of expensive material cladded on a thicker layer of cheap material.

• Metal combinations possible which are conventional impossible to weld.

• Original metal properties maintain.

• Joint/bond stronger than the weakest material.

• Oxide free atomic bond

• Electrical resistance of anode / cathode blocks nil.

• Required clad layer thickness in 1 step realized

• Smooth surface after cladding

• Intermediate quality control not necessary
