Equipment for Commercial Applications

Joseph Oat, since its inception in the late 1700's, has provided high quality commercial equipment to industry. During the 20th century, our products centered mainly on pressure vessels and heat exchangers, and we were among the first companies to receive ASME’s authorization to supply this type of equipment. It is still common to have customers call us with questions about successfully operating equipment we fabricated over 60 years ago.

Over the last 40 years, we have supplied numerous petrochemical plants, chemical plants, oil refineries, and other commercial establishments with a great variety of equipment manufactured from many different alloys. We have produced large and complex shell and tube heat exchangers, columns, and reactors, as well as other specialty pressure vessels for highly corrosive and severe industrial applications. These applications have included acetic acid, nitric acid, pesticide production, PTA, and many others.

Photographs presented on this internet site provide some examples of the range and size of equipment fabricated by Joseph Oat Corporation.
