Overview
Air and Gas Compressors are typically used in every sector such as Oil & Gas, Steel, Chemical, Engineering industries etc. Based on its intended use, these compressors handle different corrosive gases such as chlorine, hydrogen chloride, hydrogen sulphide etc. The piston rods are subjected to wear and corrosion due to continuous operation under these harsh conditions which result in premature failure of packaging seal areas and untimely breakdowns. In specific industries, these compressors are the heart of overall production and an unexpected downtime may cause huge financial loss. HVOF sprayed carbide and cermet coated piston rods, ground and super-finished to achieve low co-efficient of friction, have proven to exhibit excellent wear and corrosion resistant properties thereby increasing operational life.
