We Repair Pump Corrosion & Erosion Damage

This axial flow pump experienced efficiency loss due to erosion and corrosion. To restore performance, the pump body and impeller were grit blasted to near-white metal. Areas with metal loss were rebuilt using Belzona 1111 Super Metal paste, followed by two coats of Belzona 1321 Ceramic S Metal coating for long-term protection against future erosion.

Before: Erosion damage discovered on water pump volute.

split case water pump volute erosion repair and coating completed

After: Erosion is repaired and protective coating applied to extend service life.

Split Case Drinking Water Pump Volute Repair

The pump owner faced severe erosion and corrosion, with pitting every two years and previous coatings failing within a year. Switching to Belzona cut re-coating to every five years, delivering a durable, cost-effective solution.

corroded chemical wastewater pump housing

Before: Chemical attack has caused severe corrosion of pump housing.

After: Belzona 1321 Ceramic S-Metal coating protects against chemical attack.

Industrial Wastewater Pump Rebuild

A chemical plant’s wastewater pump suffered severe corrosion, causing pitting, performance loss, and frequent replacements. Belzona 1111 rebuilt the damage, and Belzona 1321 provided lasting protection. Two years later, the pump runs reliably, avoiding costly replacements.

pump diffuser with extreme cavitation damage

Before: Extreme cavitation damage to a pump diffuser causes performance loss.

After: Belzona 1111 is used to rebuild lost metal and quickly return pump to service.

Cavitated Pump Diffuser Restored With Belzona

A pond pump with significant cavitation damage to the impeller and diffuser was performing below requirements. Lost metal in the diffuser was restored using Belzona 1111 and reinforcing metal rod. After machining the part back to its original dimensions, the pump was returned to reliable service.

corroded pump volute detail

Before: Badly worn cutwater and hole through volute.

After: Pump components coated with Belzona 1391 high temperature coating.

Food Processing Condensate Pump Restoration

A customer needed to rebuild a severely eroded back plate and volute and coat a new impeller on a 176°F condensate pump. Since welding cast iron is difficult, we used Belzona to restore the damage without distortion and applied Belzona 1391 for long-lasting, high-temperature protection.

wastewater pump volute hole

Before: Hole and metal loss in wastewater pump volute casing.
