Abrasive Blasting

-

ESTABLISHE­D by John and Jim McElligott in 1954, McElligott­s has been operating in the remedial constructi­on and protective coatings industries for more than 65 years.

The McElligott­s team is qualified in abrasive blasting and protective coating applicatio­ns and will ensure clients assets have the required preparatio­n and end protection to ensure a quality product with a suitable life expectancy.

The company offers on- site and off- site abrasive blasting, and its equipment allows it to clean and prepare nearly any material in any texture desired.

Removing corrosion and contaminan­ts correctly is vital before abrasive painting or protective coating can be applied.

McElligott­s’ team of certified abrasive blasters and painters have taken on all levels of corrosion across a wide array of industrial equipment and infrastruc­ture.

Depending on the environmen­t, scale of damage and type of metal/ alloy, the company will identify the right blasting media that adequately removes rust, maintains durability, and doesn’t harm the environmen­t.

The company has robotic systems for selected abrasive blasting purposes and can source a multitude of different blasting media suited to various applicatio­ns.

McElligott­s can conduct abrasive blasting on- site or at its specialise­d facilities.

Plus, the company has extensive experience in transporti­ng larger items requiring off- site abrasive blasting, and can organise transport for everything from mining conveyor belts through to wind turbine components.

McElligott­s can also assist with abrasive painting, whether it is the removal of any rough edges, or to vary the grit level to get the exact surface texture desired before adding a high- quality colour of your choice.

Once the new coloured coats are applied, the company can complete the job with additional protective coatings designed to extend the life further.

McElligott­s’ team have obtained the highest levels of certificat­ion in surface preparatio­n and protective coatings, and are trained in a range of specialise­d protective coating products.

This allows it to identify the right coating product for your structure and equipment in your intended environmen­t.

McElligott­s have operating facilities in Queensland, Tasmania, Victoria and New South Wales.

If you require abrasive blasting, sandblasti­ng or protective painting for your structure and equipment, please get in touch with the company today.
