A cladded vessel (or clad vessel) is a type of pressure vessel that has a layer of corrosion-resistant material (cladding) bonded to a base material, usually carbon steel or low alloy steel. This combination provides both mechanical strength and corrosion resistance which is often needed in chemical, petrochemical, or oil and gas industries.

Why Use a Cladded Vessel?

• Cost efficiency: Corrosion-resistant alloys (like stainless steel, Inconel, or titanium) are expensive. Using them as a full-thickness material would be costly. Instead, only a thin corrosion-resistant layer is bonded to a cheaper structural metal.
• Corrosion protection: Protects the vessel interior from corrosive substances (e.g., acids, seawater, or aggressive chemicals).
• Mechanical strength: The base metal (like carbon steel) handles the pressure and mechanical load.

Common Cladding Materials:

Cladding Methods:

• Roll Bonding / Explosion Bonding: Sheets of the corrosion-resistant metal are bonded to the base metal using pressure and/or explosion.
• Weld Overlay: Cladding is applied by welding a corrosion-resistant alloy layer on the surface.
• Mechanical Cladding: Cladding material is mechanically attached, sometimes used for non-pressurized applications.

Applications:

• Heat exchangers
• Reactors
• Columns and towers
• Storage tanks
• Offshore pressure equipment
