Pipefitters and asbestos exposure share an unfortunate relationship. Throughout the course of their careers, many were exposed to asbestos and subsequently developed mesothelioma. Pipefitters exposed to asbestos are most likely to have come into contact with the toxic mineral while working in buildings constructed prior to 1980.
WHERE WERE WORKERS EXPOSED TO ASBESTOS?
Pipefitters may have been exposed to asbestos in any number of manufacturing facilities because many of these facilities had components which contained asbestos, including:
- Furnaces
- Steam traps
- Heat exchangers
- Tanks
- Boilers
- Cooling towers
- Pipelines
- Valves
- Wires
- Ducts
- Pumps
- Insulation
- Gaskets
- Packing materials
If you or someone you know worked as a Pipefitter and has developed mesothelioma, talk to one of our attorneys. Compensation may be available.
