In industries where equipment uptime and process reliability directly impact the bottom line, valve body protection has become a critical maintenance strategy. Curran International is seeing growing demand for internal valve ID coatings — engineered to extend service life, reduce maintenance downtime, and improve process efficiency across a range of harsh environments.

Coatings for Every Process Environment

Curran offers a wide portfolio of internal coatings designed to perform in all process environments, from corrosive chemical service to high-velocity flow conditions. These coatings:

  • Protect internal surfaces from erosion, corrosion, and fouling
  • Maintain valve functionality and efficiency
  • Extend operational life, reducing the need for costly replacements

Machinable Coatings: Restoring and Protecting Valves

For valves impacted by flow velocity erosion or turbulence, Curran’s machinable coatings create a sacrificial protective layer.

  • Restore valve body internal walls to original dimensions after pitting or washout
  • Can be reapplied during maintenance outages, reducing turnaround downtime
  • Eliminate unnecessary valve replacements, cutting costs and saving time

Thin-Film Coatings: Longer Life, Less Maintenance

Curran’s proprietary thin-film coating systems create a corrosion-resistant barrier for valves in harsh, caustic, and corrosive service. Benefits include:

  • Extended valve life and maintenance intervals
  • Eliminated need for costly upgrades
  • Sustained performance under aggressive process conditions

Foul Release Coatings: Maintaining Flow Rates & Efficiency

For valve assemblies prone to product build-up and flow restriction, Curran’s foul release coatings reduce surface tension and prevent adhesion. Clients report:

  • Reduced product build-up inside valves
  • Maintained flow rates and system efficiency
  • Lowered energy consumption throughout their systems
