Método de aplicación:

Application was carried out in accordance with Belzona Know-How System Leaflets ENC-2 & SHM-11. The casing threads were reformed with Belzona® 1111 using the bolts treated with Belzona Release Agent as formers. The internals of the pipe were lined with Belzona® 1812.

Hechos Belzona:

Prior to contacting Belzona, the company had to replace this piece of equipment every 1 or 2 years. An inspection of the Belzona lining 3 ½ years later, in August 2010 showed it was still in place and none of the metal parts were exposed. As a result, the customer asked Belzona for several similar applications.
