WPS offers a comprehensive range of composite repair materials designed specifically for the rebuilding and restoration of engines and casings. These materials are commonly used in various heavy-duty industrial engines, including locomotives, marine engines, and generators.
Our multi-purpose machinable repair and rebuild composites provide an efficient solution for quick repairs, allowing critical equipment to return to service faster than traditional methods like welding. This minimizes both downtime and repair costs.
For surfaces that are heavily contaminated, WPS offers a surface-tolerant, cold-curing repair composite for fast applications. This material can be applied directly to oily, wet, or even underwater surfaces, making it ideal for in-situ repairs.
Heat, impact, and corrosion damage can be easily addressed using WPS’s paste-grade materials. For high-temperature repairs, our materials provide exceptional protection, extending the life of equipment operating in demanding environments. These materials are solvent-free and designed to coat a variety of substrates, offering long-term erosion and corrosion resistance.
For engine chocking and grouting, our pourable, 100% solids chocking system offers excellent alignment and anchorage. It has a high compressive strength and does not shrink during curing, providing effective load-bearing capability while ensuring corrosion and vibration resistance.
WPS’s metal repair composites are ideal for:
- Resurfacing distorted mating faces on gearboxes and casings
- Reforming bearing and bushing housings accurately
- Restoring stripped threads on cover plates and sump plugs
- Repairing cracks and holes caused by mechanical failure, wear, erosion, or corrosion
- Addressing damage to cylinder blocks and liners from erosion, corrosion, and cavitation
- Rebuilding bearing shells and filling voids or defects in metal casings
- Sealing porous and permeable casings
- Restoring flanges to their original dimensions
- Providing alignment and anchorage for chocking and grouting applications
In addition, WPS’s range of rubber repair and protection materials can be used for resilient mountings or to cast new ones. Our materials also provide thermal insulation protection for engine casings.
