TecGuard® repair coating for chocks
Chocks are installed in many of our customers' plants and are used to support backup rolls and work rolls in hot and cold rolling mills. What all these chocks have in common is that they are exposed to tremendous loads such as temperature and/or high forces and the resulting wear through out their lifetime.
We use the latest generation of repair techniques to ensure that the chocks can be re-used over the long term. Alongside options for repairing components and their attachments (rocker plate, side guides), We now offers chock bore repairs using the wire arc spraying method, TecGuard®-REP9545. This procedure is used to restore the original diameter of the chock bore. The material properties of the repaired chock bore are at the very least identical to those of a new chock. The repair method shown below is a cost-effective alternative with a short lead time/delivery time compared to buying a new component. A dedicated team of experts selects the materials and processes to suit the relevant application and works on the further development of the coatings. The chocks are repaired with an iron-based coating system that contains an optimum amount of carbon.
