I am translating a set of specifications for recovery boilers in Portugal. The sentence in question reads: "As faces de vedação serão preferencialmente Stelitadas (todas as válvulas principais e todas as válvulas de vapor)."
Is this a typo? How would you translate "Stelitadas" in US English? Google was no help at all.
Many thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Stellite alloy is a range of cobalt-chromium alloys designed for wear resistance. It may also contain tungsten and a small but important amount of carbon. It is a trademarked name of the Deloro Stellite Company and was invented by Elwood Haynes in the early 1900s as a substitute for flatware that stained (or that had to be constantly cleaned).
