Our Expertise
Mining operations in Quebec (Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Nord-du-Québec) and Ontario (Sudbury, Timmins, Thunder Bay) face some of the most aggressive corrosion and wear conditions on earth. Induscoat protects slurry lines, flotation cells, thickeners, leach tanks and process vessels with formulated coating systems from Chester Molecular, Arcor and Induscoat. We also supply filter presses, hydrocyclones and wear parts for mineral processing. Our crews mobilize for spring shutdowns (April–May) and winter maintenance windows (November–January), working under site HSE plans with full confined-space and hot-work protocols.
Key Challenges We Solve
- Slurry line abrasion and corrosion
- Flotation cell and thickener lining
- Leach tank chemical resistance
- Remote-site mobilization and HSE
Equipment We Protect
- Slurry pumps and pump casings
- Flotation cells and launders
- Hydrocyclones and classifiers
- Grinding mills (SAG, ball, rod) with liners
- Thickeners and leach tanks
Operational Constraints
- Abrasive slurries at high solids content (up to 70 %)
- Remote site access logistics and seasonal mobilization windows
- Variable pH process chemistry (acid leach to alkaline flotation)
- Continuous 24/7 operation with limited shutdown windows
Recommended Products & Brands
- Chester Molecular composite for slurry pump casing rebuild
- Arcor VRPE for leach tank and thickener lining
- Chester Molecular AR composite for hydrocyclone apex protection
- Foundry castings (grade ASTM A532 Class III) for grinding mill liners and crusher wear parts
Types of Shutdowns
- Planned annual turnaround (4–10 day window)
- Campaign changeover between ore types
- Emergency shutdown on critical equipment failure
Risks We Help You Avoid
- Unplanned production loss from slurry line failure
- Environmental spill from leach tank or thickener leak
- Premature liner replacement driving up consumables cost
- Safety incidents from degraded walkways and handrails
Sector FAQ
Which mining equipment do you repair and coat?
We protect and repair slurry lines, flotation cells, thickeners, leach tanks, slurry pumps, hydrocyclones, mills, crushers, grab buckets and feed chutes. Our crews mobilize to mining sites in Quebec (Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Nord-du-Québec, Côte-Nord) and Ontario (Sudbury, Timmins, Thunder Bay).
Do you work during mine shutdowns?
Yes. We schedule our interventions around spring shutdown windows (April–May) and winter outages (November–January), but also during continuous service on isolated equipment. Cold-curing composites reduce the outage window to 24 to 72 hours versus several days for a full replacement.
How much does anti-corrosion protection cost for a mine?
Cost depends on equipment type, surface area, the selected coating system and access constraints. A pump repair is a fraction of the cost of a new pump. Request a free quote within 24 business hours — our engineers specify the exact system and price for your application.
