Weld Seams & HAZ
Where Coating Failure Begins
Weld seams and heat-affected zones are structurally critical — and among the most corrosion-prone locations on steel assets.
Critical Zones
The Weak Link in Protection
Unlike flat steel, weld seams and HAZ present unique challenges. Changes in metallurgy, geometry, and residual stress make them especially vulnerable when preparation is inconsistent.
Weld seams don't need thicker coatings — they need stress-neutral preparation.
Irregular Geometry
Complex transitions and weld caps that standard tools struggle to reach.
Metallurgical Changes
Oxides and residues from the welding process that compromise adhesion.
Residual Stress
Higher-stress zones that require neutral preparation to prevent early failure.
Access Constraints
Tight spaces and difficult angles common in structural steel joints.
Preventive Preparation
Prepare Weld Seams Before Coating
MontiPower supports a preventive approach, keeping weld seams are prepared correctly before coating, reducing the risk of premature failure. The result: improved coating adhesion, more uniform thickness, fewer inspection findings, and longer coating service life. The Belt Selector matches belt grade to weld geometry and rust grade; ISO 8501-1 test reports document the achieved cleanliness.
