Wear protection
for power generation equipment

Coal mills · Cyclones · Gas ducts · Ash systems
Abrasive wear
High temperatures
Erosive wear

Power plants operate continuously under extreme
conditions. Coal mills, gas ducts, ash transport systems
and cyclones wear rapidly under abrasive, erosive and
thermal load. Every unplanned stoppage means
production losses and costly emergency repairs

WFM engineered solutions protect the highest-load zones, extending service life by 3–5×

Every stage
of your process
is losing money
to wear

From fuel intake to ash disposal, every
stage contains high-wear zones that
shorten equipment life and increase
maintenance costs

Describe your wear zone. We’ll select
the right grade and send a tailored
proposal within one business day.

Most wear problems come from using
the wrong grade in the wrong zone.
We fix that by matching material to
actual operating conditions.
