Energy as a new customer; its
coating has been specified as a costeffective,
high-performance solution
to extend the life of the 15MW boiler
feed steam valves at Hinkley Point B
nuclear power station in Somerset.
Hardide was selected for its ability to coat internal surfaces evenly, its performance in testing and its ease of implementation and maintenance.
Graham Young, steam & rotating plant engineer, EDF Energy, said: "There were technical challenges in applying the coating process to the large Stellite 6 valve covers and Hardide provided excellent troubleshooting support and delivered the parts in time so availability of power plant equipment was not affected."
