Increase the lifetime of your Valve Trim
When it comes to valve trim protection for severe service applications such as HPAL, POX (used for Mineral extraction), and Oil Sands, Score’s patented coating technology has you covered.
Our BM-1600™ coating system provides dual corrosion and abrasion protection and can increase valve trim life by 400%. Our FM-1500™ surface modification solution is metallurgically bonded and TiN-based for a fully dense wear- and corrosion-resistant layer, reducing unplanned downtime, lowering maintenance costs and extending service life. Both technologies were developed at our 100% automated APS/HVOF and metallurgical laboratory facilities.
Score’s metallurgical valve analysis and development teams provide the highest quality severe service coatings and surface solutions, with exceptional adhesion properties, minimum porosity and less contaminant to match your specifications. We combine process versatility with our automated systems to deliver the repeatable quality you expect from Score.
