Manufactured with precision engineering, available in custom specifications, and meeting stringent quality standards, our piping solutions are built to handle the toughest industrial demands.

WHAT IS OVERLAY WELDING?

Overlay welding is a specialized process where a layer of corrosion-resistant alloy is welded onto the surface of a base metal, typically carbon or low-ally steel. This technique improves the material's properties, providing superior resistance to wear, corrosion, and high temperatures. Overlay welding is widely used in industries where equipment is exposed to harsh conditions, making sure the longevity and reducing your maintenance costs. Weld overlay clad pipes and fittings are engineered to provide exceptional performance in corrosive and high-temperature environments. By applying a layer of alloy through welding, these pipes and fittings combine strength of carbon steel with the corrosion resistance of premium alloys like Inconel, Hastelloy, or stainless steel. this makes them ideal for applications in oil refineries, chemical plants, and offshore platforms.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLADDING AND OVERLAY?

While both cladding and overlay welding aim to enhance the performance of base materials, they differ in their methods:

  • Cladding: Involves bonding a corrosion-resistant alloy (like stainless steel or nickel alloy) to the base metal through processes like roll bonding or explosion welding. This creates a metallurgical bond, resulting in a durable, dual-layer material.
  • Overlay Welding: Uses welding techniques to deposit a layer of alloy onto the base metal. This method is highly customizable, allowing for precise control over thickness and composition.

While both cladding and overlay welding aim to enhance the performance of base materials, they differ in their methods:

THE WELD OVERLAY PROCESS

The weld overlay process involves several key steps:

  • Surface preparation: The base metal is cleaned and prepared to ensure proper adhesion of the overlay material.
  • Welding: Using advanced techniques like submerged arc welding (SAW) or gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), a layer of alloy is deposited onto the base metal.
  • Inspection: The overlay is inspected for uniformity, thickness, and quality using non-destructive testing (NDT) methods.
  • Finishing: The final product is machined and finished to meet precise specifications.

ABOUT CLADDED PIPE & FITTINGS

Cladded Pipes and Fittings are created by bonding a corrosion-resistant alloy to a base metal, forming a robust, dual-layer material. This process ensures excellent mechanical strength and resistance to harsh environments, making cladded pipes and fittings a cost-effective alternative to solid alloy materials.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

  • Corrosion resistance: The alloy layer provides exceptional protection against corrosive substances, extending the lifespan of the pipes and fittings.
  • Cost-effective: Combines the strength of carbon steel with the corrosion resistance of premium alloys, reducing material costs.
