Mechanical Pumps
Food processing mechanical pump seals are made out of stainless steel - such as 316L SS and are coated with metal oxide ceramics such as Chrome Oxide and with Carbide containing materials for greatly enhanced wear resistance. Food processing pump shafts, sleeves and impellors can be coated for improved wear resistance. The coatings provide an excellent alternative to hard chrome plating.
