A little bit of engine lathe work building some stainless steel flanges, they will be fitted to a pipe that is removable from this weldment by using the new flanges. We also employed the Bridgeport mill and the DRO. We have put an eight bolt pattern for the flanges. Taking time to teach one of the young welders that there is more to this work than just burning rods.💪🏼💪🏼

HFI preassembled a double set of girders just shy of a 100 feet. We use a transit level to ensure proper alignment, we can hold a 1/16 inch over the full length of the double beams. This procedure was performed to ensure perfect fitment and to satisfy contract document.

When one of your best customers ask for help you give it. This is a Heavy Hauling rig that carries in upwards of 120,000 pounds. It had some damage at the connection point. HFI has done similar work under the same situation many times. We did not hesitate. Everything was done in house from the machining of the chromemoly pins to the CNC cutting of the parts, AWS unlimited certified welders handled the task with great skill. This project was turn-keyed in record time, Now the customer can show up on the job site on time.

HFI is incredibly grateful for a fantastic 2025. We have our sites set on a record year for 2026. HAPPY NEW YEAR ‼️

It looks like HFI will be ending the year with a pretty large project. This is the false work for the I. 49 project in Fort Smith, Arkansas. This steel will be used to support structures across the Arkansas river. It is a temporary structure. HFI is very proud to be a part of such a large project. We will be building four continuous span girders. They will be just shy of 100 feet. We will proudly share the photos as we test fit them. They will be fabricated from a
W 36 x 170 pound grade 50 beam.

If you are in the welding industry, steel fabrication or use industrial gases,
Chances are you ran across Gerald.
HFI has only had one welding supplier for 43 years and it has been WELSCO
I first met Gerald in approximately 1981. I bought my very first heavy duty industrial Welder from The Man. He was a counterman at the Little Rock store on Roosevelt. He stored the machine for me and I paid him weekly until it was paid for stopping by in a semi truck and hand delivering my
payment in person. I told that story in person at his retirement party yesterday. He would come to our office
and our facility so much that he had become family. Some customers would be here and thought he worked here. I learned early on in life that people buy from people. Gerald‘s knowledge of the industry is nothing short of amazing. I still smile when I look back at how they helped us in the bad times they never cut me off. They stuck with me and I stuck with them truth be known it was all because of Gerald.
Have a happy and wonderful retirement while you’re enjoying your grandkids
