Coating Nuclear Components

Armoloy® TDC and XADC-Armoloy® coatings are successfully used in nuclear reactors. In nuclear applications, the use of Armoloy® coatings have resulted in improved wear resistance. Surface hardness is increased to 78 Rc with Armoloy and to 98 Rc with XADC-Armoloy® coating. The coatings also reduce galling (cold-welding), seizing and fretting corrosion.

Armoloy® coatings are not adversely affected by radiation and perform well in temperatures that exceed 1000o F. Armoloy can coat all grades of stainless steel.

Applications include:

  • Coating SS Control Rods/Tubes
  • Coating SS Adjusting Nuts
  • Coating Threaded Components ID/OD
  • Coating Underwater Cutting Equipment
  • Coating Stainless Steel
  • Coating SS Adjusting Bolts
  • Coating SS Pumps
  • Coating Grippers
  • Coating Lock Pins
  • Coating Metal
