Component Coating and Repair Services

Houston Pump & Gear evaluates pump and gearbox components such as shafts, gears, housings, bearings, seals, and related precision parts. Depending on the condition and application, a component may be reconditioned, dimensionally restored through machining or metal spray, reverse engineered, or replaced. The goal is to select a practical repair path that supports reliable operation and equipment life.

Metal spray restoration is commonly considered when a shaft has wear, corrosion, scoring, or dimensional loss on a critical surface. The process rebuilds the affected area so it can be returned to the required operating dimension. After evaluation, the team can determine whether restoration is appropriate or whether machining, repair, or replacement manufacturing is the better solution.

Yes. When OEM drawings, specifications, or replacement parts are unavailable, Houston Pump & Gear can evaluate the damaged component and use reverse-engineering methods to recreate it. This can include gears, shafts, housings, and pump components. Reverse engineering is particularly valuable for legacy equipment where sourcing an original part could create excessive cost or downtime.

The decision begins with an inspection of the component’s wear, damage, dimensions, and intended operating conditions. The team considers whether precision machining, refurbishment, metal spray restoration, or another repair method can return the part to service reliably. If repair is not practical, an OEM-sourced or manufactured replacement component may be recommended.

Yes. Houston Pump & Gear provides 24/7 emergency industrial repair support for critical equipment failures and expedited needs. The team can coordinate rapid assessment, repair planning, and equipment pickup when practical. Emergency service is intended to help power plants and industrial facilities reduce the duration of an unexpected shutdown and return essential equipment to operation.

Yes. Component repair is often integrated into a complete pump or gearbox overhaul. After disassembly and inspection, worn or failed parts can be reconditioned, precision machined, restored, or replaced before reassembly and testing. This coordinated approach addresses the condition of the complete unit rather than treating one component in isolation.

Provide the equipment type, component description, manufacturer and model information when available, operating symptoms, photos, and any known dimensions or drawings. Sharing the urgency of the issue and the application is also useful. For obsolete parts, even incomplete samples or damaged components can help guide inspection and reverse-engineering requirements.
