Things to Consider with Surface Coatings


In today’s technology, thermal coatings have become Surface Engineered Solutions, which can be overwhelming to companies looking for repair or new applications. 

Things to consider: 

  • Materials-substrate/coating/sealer 
  • Temperature-Processing/operating 
  • Shape of part-line of sight 
  • Size of part to be coated 
  • Coating thickness 
  • Operating environment 

What are you trying to accomplish? 
  • Wear resistance 
  • Corrosion/chemical resistance 
  • Traction 
  • Release 
  • Low friction 
  • Conductivity-electrical/thermal 
  • Dimension restoration 
  • Abradable surface

During the lifetime of your equipment you will need to replace your harden rolls more than a few times depending on your operational hours and applications.

I have been repairing these types of parts for decades. If you hire the right company, you can save a lot of money by expertly refurbishing worn parts. However, there are certain mechanical parts where repair/refurbished are not viable options. In these cases, replacement parts are the only recommendation to ensure quality and perform
