The original capability. Rebuilt to outlast the OEM.
Rebuilding worn machine parts is the original capability Parkway-Kew was founded on in 1952. Wire drawing blocks, fracking plungers, wire rope pulleys, and crane wheels — many rebuilt parts exceed the wear life of their original supply.
Component repair & rebuilding services, one engineering review per part.
Wire Drawing Block Hardsurfacing
The application Parkway-Kew was founded on. Submerged-arc, fuse, and HVOF hardsurfacing of wire drawing blocks for the wire & cable industry.
- Since 1952 — pioneered here
- Submerged-arc, fuse, and HVOF
- Compatible with Restore & Grind
Fracking Plunger Rebuilding
Rebuild worn plungers with PK-730 tungsten carbide or PK-62 nickel chrome chemistries chosen for the wear environment.
- PK-730 tungsten carbide
- PK-62 nickel chrome
- Engineered for oil & gas
Wire Rope Pulley Rebuilding
Rebuild wire rope pulleys and sheaves — restoring groove geometry and adding a wear-resistant coating engineered for the counter-rope.
- Groove geometry restoration
- Wear-resistant coating layer
- Shipping and port applications
Crane Wheel Rebuilding
Rebuild crane wheels — worn treads and flanges restored to spec with a hardsurface wear layer engineered for the running rail.
- Tread and flange restoration
- Hardsurface wear layer
- Shipping, terminals, heavy equipment
Restore & Grind Process
Our proprietary repair cycle for coated wire drawing blocks — five to seven selective repairs per block before a full recoat is required.
- Selective fill of drawline wear only
- Seamless blend with original chemistry
- 5–7 cycles before recoat
Grit Blast & Aluminize (GBA)
Strip corrosion out of a water-cooled block’s cooling passages, then aluminize the cleaned surface so it does not simply return.
- Interior back to clean base metal
- Sprayed aluminium corrosion barrier
- Restores heat transfer lost to scale
Block sleeving — rebuilding a badly worn block.
Block sleeving is a separate offering. When a wire drawing block is too badly worn to recoat, we rebuild it with a forged steel ring that is shrink-fit to the block and then coated.
The result is a block with a fresh wear surface engineered from a solid forging — a full mechanical rebuild, not just a coating repair. The coating chemistry on top is selected to match the drawing duty.
- Forged steel ring, shrink-fit to the block
- Coating applied after the sleeve is fitted
- Rebuild for blocks too badly worn to recoat
