Corrocoat SEL is a spray applied epoxy glassflake lining, intended for single or multi-coat application, that provides durable chemical protection in aggressive atmospheric conditions and immersed environments. Corrocoat SEL has a smooth finish and can withstand immersed temperature levels up to 90°C in oil, and non-immersed levels up to 100°C. It displays excellent resistance to discolouration that can occur on exposure to strong concentrations of acid. SEL has excellent application characteristics and edge coverage in single coats and is predominately applied...

the dividing cones inside a slag residue silo, manufactured from hardox 500 steel, were subject to a constant abrasive environment. the client required a solution that would prolong the overall expected service life of the steel cone structures by applying a protective, abrasion-resistant coating over the steel structure. Corrotech recommended using a trowel applied abrasion-resistant compound – Rezorect 125 Ceramic Wearing Compound, from the Rezorect family of engineering emergency repair products. Rezorect 125 was specially developed to protect against...
