One of the things that sets us apart from our competitors, is the sheer depth of our expertise when it comes to coatings solutions. In many cases, we work with customers who have previously been unable to find the right coating for their project and came to use our knowledge to recommend or design the ideal type of coating.
As a result of this, we've got a reputation for being able to provide coatings for even the most extreme environments and we regularly create bespoke coatings for the oil & gas industry.
Factors such as the environment that the stud bolts will be used, the temperature range they need to tolerate and what chemicals they may be exposed to, all determine the final selection of coating material. This ensures that your bolts are durable and corrosion resistant.
