Abrasion Resistant Materials

One of the key elements in finding a solution to a wear problem is the proper selection of an abrasion resistant material.  No two abrasion problems are identical. The question of which material is most suitable and most economical for a particular application can only be answered when all parameters of the abrasion problem are known. Reparex is able to offer the wide spectrum of abrasion resistant materials including:
 
Ceramics:

Abrasion Resistant
Thermal Spray Coatings:

Alumina Ceramics
Silicon Carbide Ceramics
Zirconia Ceramics
Cast Basalt

Ceramics
Tungsten Carbides
Plastics
Hard metals
Weld Overlays

Other Materials: Tungsten Carbides

Refractory Cements
Epoxy Wearing Compounds
AR Steel

Each material may be suited to a specific operational environment.  Unlike other companies Reparex is not tied to a specific material or technology we pride our selves on being able to offer the material that is most appropriate for you specific requirements.

Abrasion Resistant Technologies

The key to designing a wear solution that will after selecting a wear material is the proper selection of an application technology that will allow a given wear resistant material to work in a specific operational environment. By correctly installing a wear material Reparex ensures that its maximum wear life is achieved, delivering maximum performance and value for our customers. Reparex is able to offer a wide range of abrasion resistant coating and linings using historically proven methods as well as new cutting edge technologies.  Reparex is able to provide our customers with the most cost effective and best performing solutions because we have the technologies and know how to apply the spectrum of abrasion resistant materials.  From traditional low-cost epoxy and weldable ceramic installations to high performing thermal spray coatings.  In many cases we marry our technologies and materials to provide our customers with the best balance of cost and performance.  Commonly we create hybrid solutions of our high performance AeroTech Bonding (Vacuum Bonding) of ceramics with Brazed Tungsten Carbide.  AeroTech Bonded ceramic offers unsurpassed performance in dynamic applications where traditional application methods fail.  When wed with the impact resistance of Brazed Tungsten Carbide this hybrid solution can protect equipment in the most hostile environments.  Similarly, our Carbistel material casts tungsten carbide into an abrasion resistant steel forming a matrix that can withstand the gouging and impact wear seen in crushers.  Adding to our ability to meet our customer needs are our machining and grinding resources.  These allow us to repair; retrofit and finish grind the most precision pieces of equipment, such as rotary airlocks, pump shaft sleeves, seals and ceramic valve components.

Our Abrasion Resistant Technologies Include:

  • Installations using specialized epoxies, mortar and grouts
  • Mechanical attachments such as bolt-in linings, weld-in linings, shrink and interference fit pieces
  • Pre-engineered ceramic linings custom cut in green state to fit even the most complex chute, hoppers or feeder.
  • AeroTech Vacuum Bonding for application of ceramic and carbide linings in high speed and dynamic equipment like fans, mixers and screw conveyors
  • Brazing Tungsten Carbide for the most extreme wear environments
  • Thermal spray coatings can be used for wear, thermal barrier and corrosion resistance.
  • Machining and diamond grinding precision parts
  • Pipe and steel fabrications for turn-key solutions
  • Fiberglass fabrications and Wearback for corrosion resistance and super light weight
  • Quick Fix Pipe Clamps for emergency repairs
