Power Generation Cladding Applications

 

 

 

Pumps 

 

Increase the reliability of your pumps with Conforma Clad tungsten carbide cladding. Our pump components last longer and sustain maximum performance levels by maintaining critical component geometries for extended run times.

 

Common Conforma Clad Pump Components: 

 

  • Impellers
  • Housings
  • Top & Bottom Plates
  • Shaft Sleeves

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Features & Benefits

  • Increased Productivity - Extended pump life results in fewer equipment shutdowns and component changes, lengthening run-times between maintenance windows.

  • Reliable Pump Performance - Our cloth delivery system enables densely packed tungsten carbide to be uniformly applied to complex geometries, providing a protective barrier that wears at a uniform and predictable rate.  

Pump Component Cladding Specifications

Substrates 

Cladding can be applied to most carbon steels, stainless steels and alloy steels. 
Temperature

Continuous operation at temperatures up to 1900 degrees F (1038 degrees C) with nominal performance impact. Able to withsatnd transients in excess of 2000 degree F.

Compatibility

Compatible with chemicals commonly found in coal and fly ash, including hydrochloric acid, hydrogen fluoride and sulfuric acid.
