- Mixer Beams and Agitator Nozzle Supports (FEA Analysis available)
- Dimpled, Half-Pipe and Conventional Jackets
- Internal Heating/Cooling Coils
- Polishing (#3 to #8 Mirror Polish or electro-polishing)
- Support Legs, Lugs, Skirts and Saddles
- Insulation/insulation skin
- Seismic and Wind Loading design
- Internal/External Coatings
- OSHA compliant Ladders, Handrails, platforms and catwalks
Our goal with manufacturing custom pressure vessels and accessory options is to give our clients more usability and more return on their investment.

parallel-flow heat exchangers, the two fluids enter the exchanger at the same end, and travel in parallel to one another to the other side. In counter-flow heat exchangers the fluids enter the exchanger from opposite ends. The counter current design is most efficient, in that it can transfer the most heat from the heat (transfer) medium. 
Pressure vessel manufacturer Bendel Tank & Heat Exchanger has a long history of designing and manufacturing custom pressure vessels. With Bendel’s years of experience, we have built a vast array of 
cylinder with a piston is an example of open-end or whereas a tank is an example of closed end vessel. Due to the fluid pressure circumferential or hoop stresses are induced in case of open-ended vessels where as longitudinal stresses in addition to circumferential stresses are induced in case of closed ended vessels.
