Coal Fired Power Plants
Coal fired power plant equipment operates in very harsh environments. Machinery and
components used in coal and ash handling, such as coal conveying systems or coal feeders,
are exposed to extreme erosion and to some of the most abrasive materials found in a power
plant.
This guide will help you to easily select the best products to help you service and maintain the facili-
ties in your plant.

Challenge:
Rusted, corroded and seized parts.
Loctite® Solution:
Use Loctite® Freeze and Release to instantly chill seized and
rusted parts (bolts, nuts, studs). The exceptional shock-freeze
effect causes microscopic cracks in the layer of rust, allowing
the lubricating ingredient to wick directly into the rust by capil-
lary action. The assembly can be easily dismantled after allowing 1-2 minutes reaction time.
Released parts remain lubricated and protected from corrosion.
