Pipe <strong>Repair</strong><br />
Ceramic <strong>Repair</strong> Putty / Brushable Ceramic<br />

Illinois Metro Water Reclamation<br />
Water Treatment<br />
Problem:<br />
This transition pipe would receive extreme cavitiation <strong>and</strong> abrasive wear from processing primary<br />
sewage water. The wear was so severe that the pipe required immediate replacement. Replacement part<br />
was no longer available.<br />
Solution:<br />
The repair area was s<strong>and</strong>blasted to a SSPC-SP5 white metal finish. Surface area was then chemically<br />
cleaned using Cleaner Blend 300. Ceramic <strong>Repair</strong> Putty was applied rebuilding the missing metal <strong>and</strong><br />
cavitated areas deeper than 1/8”. Following a partial cure of Ceramic <strong>Repair</strong> Putty, (4 hours), Brushable<br />
Ceramic was applied to a thickness of 30 mils in two coats brushed at 15 mils each. Brushable Ceramic<br />
encapsulated repair areas <strong>and</strong> provided an abrasion resistant, low co-efficient to friction protective<br />
surface coating.
