Sifco Applied Surface Concepts UK For Oil and Gas

At SIFCO Applied Surface Concepts, we have over five decades of experience in the oil and gas market. We use selective oil and gas coatings and brush plating to repair machinery, equipment, and to enhance OEM components.

Our oil and gas coatings include:

  • Silver plating onto dynamic sealing and bearing surfaces in roller cone drill bit and seal ring production.
  • Selective brush plating of copper onto premium threaded connections, alloy premium drill pipe, risers, tubulars, and couplings to prevent galling during make-and-break operations.
  • Application of sulfamate nickel for corrosion protection in high-chloride, down-hole applications
  • Repair of worn and mechanically damaged surfaces with a combination of copper and AeroNikl
  • Onsite repair of offshore platform components

Nickel Plating

At SIFCO, we offer nickel plating services for the oil and gas industry. We provide support in all aspects of the nickel plating process from development and design, through to the final process. To ensure our plating processes perform correctly, we conduct tests for material composition.

On-site Silver Plating

Our on-site silver plating is used in the electric power industry to optimise current flow, in the transmission and distribution process. We have extensive field experience to enable use to provide cost effective on-site silver plating that out-performs un-plated items such as bus bars. These provide a stable contact resistance and a low maximum operating temperature to increase the service life of the bus joint.

Anti-Corrosion Zinc-Nickel

We provide anti-corrosion zinc-nickel touch up coatings for corrosion protection in the aerospace industry. Our anti-corrosion zinc-nickel, LHE® and No Bake® Cadmium allow repairs to be made on site and with little or no disassembly required.

In-Situ Gold Plating

Our in-situ gold plating is used in the power generation industry. We supply in-situ gold plating surface enhancement technologies for applications including:

  • Lower electrical contact resistance
  • Wear resistance
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Pre-braze coatings
  • Anti-galling
  • Surface hardness
  • Surface etching
  • Other surface enhancement

Copper Plating

We are a world leader in selective plating technology and set the standard for quality and reliable copper plating. We provide copper plating to create premium threaded connections and have an approved vendor status from Tenaris, a leading licensor for oil field thread design. 

Copper Plating

Aerospace Coatings

We specialise in a wide range of surface enhancement coatings including aerospace coatings. We use aerospace coatings on components to provide wear resistance, dimensional restoration and corrosion protection.

Aerospace coatings are used to process components of engines, actuators, landing gear and airframes to increase their ability to perform and extending overall in-service life.

Anti-Galling Copper Electroplating

We use anti-galling copper electroplating where there is no margin for error on critical components. We provide high quality anti-galling copper electroplating to the oil and gas industry.

We pride ourselves in our quality and reliable plating services and create premium threaded connections to suit individual requirements.

Plating On Titanium

We offer plating on titanium for the aerospace industry. Our SIFCO Process® allows you to precisely, brush plate adherent deposits onto Ti 6-4 and Ti 6-6-2 to improve the surface properties of particular locations on components for either OEM or repair applications.

We use plating on titanium technology to increase the adhesion of the deposit to titanium alloys by effective removal of titanium's passive oxide and micro-roughening to increase surface area.
