Shaft Coating for Corrosion Resistance

Restoration and corrosion protection of water-lubricated propeller shafts and rudder stocks by Phillyclad epoxy coating, laser cladding or MIG/SAW build-up.

Description

Water-lubricated propeller shafts suffer pitting, corrosion and wear from seawater exposure. MarineShaft restores worn shafts and rudder stocks and protects them against corrosion using several methods.

Key features

  • Phillyclad two-component, fibre-reinforced epoxy coating
  • Robotic laser cladding in layers of 0.8 mm
  • MIG and SAW welding building up 5 mm or more in a single operation without post-weld heat treatment
  • MIG welding typically used for shafts under 300 mm diameter
