Cone Valve <strong>Repair</strong><br />
Wear Resistant Putty<br />
4/14/97<br />
Las Vegas Valley Water District<br />
Water Treatment<br />
Problem:<br />
The faces on this valve would receive extreme wear from processing raw sewage <strong>and</strong> other foreign<br />
materials. Past repair method was to either surface harden [hard face], or simply replace when required.<br />
Valve replacement cost was estimated to be $1K.<br />
Solution:<br />
The valve was s<strong>and</strong>blasted to a SSPC-SP5 white metal finish. Complete repair area was chemically<br />
cleaned using Cleaner Blend 300. Wear Resistant Putty was mixed <strong>and</strong> applied filling all cavitated <strong>and</strong><br />
corroded areas. Acetone was used to smooth <strong>and</strong> sculpt Wear Resistant Putty following gel point.<br />
<strong>Devcon</strong>’s repair cost was $100.
