Internal Diameter Laser Cladding Services
Internal Diameter (ID) laser cladding is when the inside of a component such as a pipe, bores or tubes are clad for the benefits of protection against impact, wear, corrosion, dimensional control, refurbishment, repair and reinforcement.
Our versatile ID laser cladding capabilities are ideal for bores or tubes 3 inches (75mm) in diameter or greater, with a reach of 60 inches. A wide range of alloy materials can be used in either powder or wire form. The 45° laser beam exit angle allows cladding of both cylinder walls and seating surfaces.
Applications include:
Drill pipes
Pump components
Valve components
Pneumatic cylinders/shafts
Bearing sleeves/surfaces
Drive train components
Sealing surfaces
Mining/drilling bits
Extrusion components
Forging dies
Corrosion resistant pipe
Engine cylinders
Gears and gear housings
