Peenflex Protective Moulding & Masking
Our damage and abrasion resistant mouldings are a simple but cost effective solution which will protect sensitive areas of components through the various stages of processing, lifting, moving, storage and despatch.
Developed to protect components during our own processing we have now extended this service and produce mouldings directly for our customers.
Using our knowledge and experience, we are able to assess component requirements to produce mouldings to meet customers’ specific needs and reduce unnecessary costs resulting from damage, delays and rework.
All our mouldings are rigorously tested to ensure a high quality of wear resistance enabling them to be recycled many times through the handling stages, and presenting a cost effective solution to damage prevention.

Controlled Shot Peening
How shot peening works
Component failure is often related to residual tensile stress induced during manufacture and certain operating conditions. The controlled shot peening process is a cost effective and practical method of replacing tensile stress with beneficial compressive stress which is proven to prevent failures due to:
- Metal fatigue
- Corrosion fatigue
- Stress corrosion cracking
- Intergranular corrosion
- Fretting
- Galling
- Spalling
- Wear
