CERACOAT AND DERINCOAT

CERACOAT and DERINCOAT wear resistant linings
provide superior protection against severe abrasive and erosive wear
at temperatures from 400 to 1200 deg C

Ceracoat and Derincoat are wear resistant composites with high compressive
strength and high wear resistant properties comprising of hard aggregates,
binders and fibres that are mixed together with prefixed measures of water in
a vam mixture to form a compound of required consistency. The final product
thus obtained can be cast or trowelled on to base plate on which expanded
wire mesh has been fixed in position with anchors, or can be spun into pipes
and bends.

Method of preparation

Ceracoat 50 kg bag Ceracoat emptied into vam mixture Add Fibre

Dry mix in vam mixture Add binder Add Water

Mix thoroughly

Ready compound
Pipes and Bends
In power, steel and cement sectors, abrasive materials are pneumatically or
hydraulically conveyed through pipelines resulting in heavy wear and tear.
This necessitates the use of a protective liner to prevent wear and enhance the
life of pipes, bends, tees, laterals etc. The advantage of using Ceracoat and
Derincoat liners is that it provides a monolythic lined surface without any edge
effects and thus ensures a smooth an uninterrupted flow of material. Local
repairs are easy to carry out during short shutdowns.

Ceracoat lined pipes Unlined pipe ready for spinning Ceracoat lined 600 mm dia Pipes

Demech manufactures ceracoat lined pipes by centrifugal spinning method of

varying thicknesses ranging from 16 mm to 35 mm at their factory in baramati.
The spinning is done on suitably fabricated MS pipes or ERW pipes with
suitable end connections flanged or plain as per customers requirements. The
diameter of the pipes range from ID 200 to 600 mm depending upon
customers needs. Pipes are generally made of 3 mtr length, variable lengths
can be manufactured either by joining 3 mtr pipes or cutting to suitable sizes.

Method of manufacture of bends, tees and laterals.

They can either made out of spun pipes or trowelled by using wire mesh and
anchor method. Mitres are cut out of spun pipes and then placed in layout of
required radius and degree, joined and welded together from the outside. The
gaps if any on the inside are filled with ceracoat mix to ensure homogeneity of
material.

Hoppers, chutes, ducts

In case of hand trowelling, expanded wire mesh is welded onto suitable
anchors spaced approx at a distance of 200 mm on the Steel Casing. The
wire mesh should be taut and not bouncy.

steel base plate side of curved surface
The ready Ceracoat mix should be trowelled applied on to the vertical, inclined
or curved surface with suitable tools to form a layer of even thickness.
Standard thickness ranges from 16 mm to 80 mm.
