About Our Mill Clad Technology
Mill Clad is a highly engineered line of wear and corrosion resistant alloys that are applied to your roll surface to improve life, and ultimately, lower your roll costs per ton. Available in a number of variations, our in-house metallurgical analysis first identifies base and weld metal chemistries designed to optimize performance. Then, we use a state-of-the-art application process to deliver consistent metal chemistry throughout the thickness of the overlay.

A Time-Proven Manufacturing Process Ensures High Quality
Timken Industrial Services’ dedicated operation has the capacity to remanufacture rolls up to 21 feet long and weighing 15 tons.
