Metal Jacketing

Metal jacketing is a type of insulation that acts as a protective outer surface for insulation systems. Aluminum jacketing is a specific insulation solution that is popular due to its versatility and ability to protect thermal insulation as well as its affordability.


Aluminum jacketing is particularly useful for the protection of mechanical insulation systems such as pipes, vessels, and equipment. Given the characteristics of aluminum, this metal jacketing is engineered to protect the insulation and underlying pipe, vessel, or equipment from physical damage, UV exposure, corrosive environments, and water.


Our extensive range of technology, equipment, and materials allows us to fabricate metal jacketing to fit and support any of your mechanical applications.


Custom Gaskets

Custom gaskets are essential components of many mechanical systems throughout various industries including HVAC, petrochemical, pulp and paper, and marine. They are often made from materials such as rubber, metal, or silicone. 


Custom gaskets are specially designed to mechanically seal and fill the space between two or more surfaces to prevent leakage from or into the joined objects while under compression. They are crucial for mechanical functionality and safety. 


With all of the various equipment and mechanical applications throughout the industries we supply, custom gaskets are a component that many of our customers need. We can use our state of the art CNC technology to fabricate any material into any gasket requirement you may have so you can keep your mechanical components operational.

Aluminum Cut & Roll

Aluminum cut and roll is an insulation solution that is used for jacketing products acting as a protective membrane. In addition to aluminum, this product includes an optional moisture barrier. Aluminum cut and roll is available in smooth and stucco forms.


Aluminum cut and roll products are used throughout mechanical insulation applications, including pipe and tank coverings. They protect against damaging events that these systems often endure, such as adverse weather, corrosion, and mechanical abuse. 


Crossroads C&I has invested in cutting-edge technology and equipment so we can custom fabricate aluminum cut and roll products to any length that is required so you can have easy onsite application.


Metal Gore/Sweeps

Crossroads C&I is the expert at fabricating both metal gores and metal sweeps. They are available in aluminum or stainless steel, smooth or stucco embossed finish, with or without moisture barrier. 


Metal gores and sweeps are essential insulation elbow covers that are fabricated in segments to cover insulated elbows on piping systems. Gores can be custom-fabricated by us in any angle or radius that is required, including 45/90. 


With our precise metal gore and metal sweep fabrications, installation is significantly easier on site with the segments joined through welding or mechanically locking the segments together, helping with labor cost savings.


Metal End Caps and Bevels

Metal End Caps and Bevels

A metal end cap is a fabricated closure created from a premade metal covering designed to fit over insulated pipe fittings in an insulation system. It is a product that is specially made to protect ends of pipes and keep out dirt and other foreign material. Metal bevels are also useful for providing protection for the pipe system against damages that can occur from weather, water, or other sources.


Metal end caps and bevels come in durable and reliable materials such as aluminum and stainless steel. We offer various styles of metal end caps and bevels through our fabrication division, including crimp and Pittsburgh style. All of the metal fittings we fabricate are available in flat for bead and crimp on site or fully machined for maximum cost efficiency. We’re prepared to supply you with ready-to-install end caps in different dimension specifications to meet your unique requirements.


Metal Mesh Blanket/Board

Metal mesh blanket/board is a type of insulation that is composed of wire mesh that is attached to the blanket/board using a galvanized or stainless steel stitching wire. Related metal mesh products are also available with carbon steel expanded metal lath.


Metal mesh blanket/board can be used throughout various industries for both hot and cold applications. It serves multiple functions such as conserving energy, maintaining process temperatures, providing personnel protection, preventing condensation and reducing noise emission and transmission.


As part of our fabrication offerings, Crossroads C&I can create metal mesh blanket/board products in various densities and sizes that can be used for temperatures up to 1200° F (650° C). 


Vessel Body Insulation

Vessel Body Insulation

Vessel body insulation, also known as vessel insulation, is a product for providing thermal, acoustic, and fire protection properties within a large vessel. It is made of lightweight materials such as mineral wool, FOAMGLAS®, and polyisocyanurate, to provide all the benefits of insulation without adding unnecessary weight.


Vessel insulation is fabricated in sections or segments that are custom cut and formed to your vessel diameter and curvature.  Each of the sections are precisely cut for easy and effective installation. With our expertise and equipment, we can custom fabricate your vessel body insulation requirements to expedite the insulation process without compromising its integrity.

Metal Vessel Heads

Metal vessel heads are precut miters that are composed of two distinct sides: one bead side and one side with an underlap. These metal vessel heads provide mechanical properties that are essential for the functionality of the vessel or tank. At Crossroads C&I, metal vessel heads can be fabricated to any size and head type including elliptical and hemispherical. We can make peels using various materials such as stainless and aluminum, both of which are smooth and stucco embossed.


As an experienced and trusted metal fabricator, Crossroads C&I is the preferred choice for tailor-made metal vessel heads that meet high industry standards and exceed customer expectations.


Insulation Vessel Heads

Insulation Vessel Heads

Insulation vessel heads fabricated by Crossroads C&I are individually made segments that are machined on all six sides to precisely fit the contour of the vessel head and its adjacent segments. A vessel head is specially designed for thermal performance of larger vessels on site. 


When Crossroads C&I fabricates a vessel head for a customer, there is a significantly reduced labor cost associated with the installation due to the reduction of time normally spent on trial-and-error cutting flat blocks in the field and the ease of installation with these pre-fabricated vessel heads. With our dedication to precision, we’re the go-to fabricator for vessel heads so the install goes smoothly for you in the field.
