Whertec Manufacturing and OEM Services
Our Products are Built on Experience and Quality
In addition to our new LaserClad™ Manufacturing facility, Whertec both engineers and manufactures specialized industrial equipment at our Technical Center in Jacksonville, Florida.
Along the way, we began to innovate our own materials and processes to continuously improve cladding for our customers. We also inspect the coatings of our competitors to see where and how mechanical failures occurred.
Whertec’s proprietary automation, laser technology, super-alloy material expertise, metallurgy lab, and personnel combine to work closely with our customers and industry partners to create specialized coatings and claddings while innovating new ways to enhance the performance of your equipment.
Whertec has been performing expert inspections for decades.
Whether field applied or manufactured, all of our products are meticulously tested in our metallurgical lab in order to ensure the levels of reliability that are so integral to performance.
LaserClad™ Stronger, Smarter, Lighter, Faster Joining metal surfaces together in the extreme conditions of today’s industrial process equipment – boilers, tubes and walls – is a tremendous challenge. Pressure, heat, and corrosive particles can create forces capable of breaking down metal and causing dangerous and expensive failures. Whertec LaserClad effectively eliminates the problems of traditional weld overlays. It uses a laser as its energy source, along with metal powder alloys, to form better metallurgical protection.
CarbideClad™ Stops Erosion in Its Tracks
ASME PRODUCTS: » Headers » Waterwalls » Reheaters
At higher temperatures the probability of erosion increases greatly. If you’re managing bubbling bed or fluidized-bed boilers, pulverized coal boilers, or off-gas hoods in steelmaking plants, you’re keenly aware of the erosion caused by extreme heat and particulate materials. CarbideClad is engineered specifically for harsh boiler environments. Even in temperatures as high as 1,550°F (843°C) CarbideClad provides up to 10 times more erosion resistance than carbon steel.
ChromeClad™ Stops the Clock on Erosion & Corrosion Our unique process outperforms other coatings to provide superior erosion and corrosion protection by effectively stopping the permeation of corrosive elements over longer maintenance intervals.
» Superheaters
What makes the ChromeClad process so innovative is our proprietary application methods and procedures that prevent tube wastage and erosion beyond the limits of conventional coatings in use today.
» Economizers
Tube Armor® Ceramic Coatings
» Generator tubes
Whertec Tube Armor® Ceramic Coating prevents the devastating effects of slag and other deposits from forming. The ceramic coating creates a chemically inert, corrosion-resistant barrier between the slag and the tube surface and is heat-rated to 1800°F. It is a non-porous, non-reactive shield that resists ash, oxidation, erosion, sulfur permeation, and other hazardous chemical byproducts. Tube Armor Ceramic Coating provides exceptional thermal management for lower furnace exit gas temperatures, an ideal benefit for most boilers, but especially those that may be operating at higher-than-designed conditions.
