A vital link in the supply chain

Heat treatment is a controlled process used to alter the microstructure of materials such as metals and alloys. With unmatched capacity and computerised systems, our facilities can process a wide range of component sizes to exacting standards with reliable, repeatable results. Bodycote's extensive list of accreditations across the network of facilities demonstrates the consistent high quality services provided to our clients.

Extending component lifetime

Discover how surface treatment solutions for severe service applications can enhance the performance of a wide range of components and provide protection from initial drilling through to final processing. Bodycote provides thermal spray coatings and a unique range of exceptionally hard, wear and corrosion resistant ceramic coatings which can be applied to complex shapes and internal bores.

Redefining component manufacturing

Bodycote operates the largest Hot Isostatic Pressing network in the world. This versatile process is capable of manufacturing fully dense components with isotropic and corrosion resistant properties from powder metal, allowing flexibility to manufacture complex components with minimal machining. Such design flexibility can, for example, eliminate up to 80% of the welds needed for subsea manifold systems.

Corrosion resistance for stainless steel

In tough downhole and offshore environments, corrosion is the enemy that frequently leads to premature failures. Stainless steel, nickel-based and cobalt-chromium alloys offer a solution, but bring their own issues of lower mechanical properties, wear resistance, and galling. Bodycote’s proprietary S³P processes provide surface hardening that results in increased key mechanical properties, improved wear, and resistance to galling, all without sacrificing the corrosion resistance of the material.
