Protect Your Rotating Equipment with Conforma Clad
Refineries process some of the world’s most aggressive fluids and slurries. In these harsh environments, pump life can be severely limited by extreme erosive and corrosive wear, leading to increased maintenance costs, reduced reliability, and increased downtime.
What We Offer:
- Tungsten carbide protecting all wetted pump surfaces
- Final finishing of cladding to achieve dimensional requirements
- Collaboration with pump OEM to meet required specifications
- Longer pump life & increased mean time between repair/failure (MTBR/MTBF)
Applications Include:
- Bottoms Pumps
- Residual Oil Pumps
- Coke Drum Charge Pumps
- Coke Pit Pumps
- FCC Charge Pumps
- Slurry Pumps
Conforma Clad can also be applied to shaft sleeves
Pump Configurations:
- Overhung API Pumps
- Between Bearing API Pumps
