The technologies used by pumps and valves often share applications for handling fluids that are particularly abrasive, corrosive, and in inaccessible places.
With GateClad® Laserco offers manufacturers of pumps and valves coatings adapted to the different components and the mechanical-chemical constraints of each piece of equipment.
Cobalt-based processes have been developped (Stellite-6 and 21, and other powders), specifically to support the pumps and valves markets.
Laserco supports manufacturers of all types of pumps: lobe pumps, screw pumps, gear pumps, vane pumps, centrifugal pumps or axial pumps… each of them is made up of parts that are subject to very high temperature, pH, abrasion and corrosion.
Whether it’s housing, flanges, shafts, lobes or impellers, GateClad provides the right protection and extends equipment life.
From 2 to 60 inches in diameter, GateClad protects and improves valve life thanks to specific deposits of Stellite or suitable alloys, when applied to seats, gates, covers, ball valves or valve bodies.
