Compressor Coatings• Casing refurbishment capability:

› No diffusion layer therefore no base material loss.

› Mild chemical stripping solution required to remove coatings therefore no risk of attack to base metal.

› Parts can be restored to “as new” condition.

Casing “as received” Casing after refurbishment5
