Your choke valves face relentless erosion from high-velocity flow, corrosive gases, and abrasive fluids—leading to frequent replacements. Traditional solutions like carbide components are expensive, and alternative coatings fail prematurely, revealing base metal.
Heshka Oil's FracKoat™ delivers a permanent solution using proprietary thermal diffusion technology. Unlike coatings that eventually fail, FracKoat penetrates the part to transform the surface of your components at the molecular level, giving you carbide-equivalent performance at a fraction of the cost.
WHY FRACKOAT BEATS CARBIDE
EQUIVALENT PERFORMANCE, LOWER COST
- Superior corrosion protection in H₂S and CO₂ environments- critical for sour service applications
- Less brittle than carbide with better impact resistance
- Fraction of the carbide price and you’ll replace parts less often
- Carbide inserts are two pieces brazed, whereas we can reduce processing costs with one part
EXTREME WEAR & RESISTANCE
- Permanent lubrication regardless of load- low coefficient of friction outlasts base metal and competing coatings
- Resistant to hydrochloric and sulfuric acids
- Proven performance in the harshest downhole and surface conditions
- Superior abrasion resistance
PRECISION ENGINEERED - NOT A COATING
- Thermal diffusion process causes zero dimensional changes
- Drop-in replacement with no costly re-engineering
- Maintains critical tolerances and surface finish
- No increase in base metal brittleness
