Metallizing
  Metallizing is one of the most economical processes to provide dimensional restoration on a wide range of components and worn parts. Coatings provide protection against atmospheric, chemical and heat corrosion and are very wear resistant. This process is used extensively for the field service repairs due to its portability.
Typical Material's Available
  • 300/400 Series Stainless Steel
  • Carbon Steel
  • Nickel
  • Aluminum
  • Bronze
  • Copper
  • Molybdenum
  • Tin
  • Zinc
  • Monel
  • Hastalloy
 
Arc Spraying
 

Arc spraying is similar to the wire metallizing process. Greater amounts of metal can be applied more quickly for large areas and heavy build up requirements. The result, reduced cost and downtime for the customer on certain applications.

Typical Material's Available
  • Stainless Steels
  • Aluminum
  • Bronze
  • Copper
  • Zinc
 
Thermospray
 

Thermospray processes provide a metallurgical bond with the substrate. Coatings have less porous finishes and are able to resist abrasive grains, fretting, cavitation and chemical environments.

Typical Material's Available
  • Nickel/ Chrome/ Boron Alloys
  • Cobalt/ Nickel/ Chrome Alloys
  • Tungsten Carbide
 
Ceramic Spray
 

The Ceramic Rod Spray System produces a "Sapphire Hard" Coating. Rokide rods are available in a variety of ceramic oxide compositions to handle the wide range of applications. Certain applications have been proved, in which, ceramic coated parts have outlasted original equipment parts by a ratio in excess of 100:1.

Typical Material's Available
  • Chromium Oxide
  • Aluminum Oxide
  • Zirconium Oxide
  • Magnesium Zirconate
 
Plasma Spray
 

The Plasma Spray System uses different material in the form of powders and plasma spray as the source of heat to melt them. This method is especially useful when coating materials which cannot be fabricated as wire or rod, can be made as powder. The coatings applied resist oxidation, abrasives, high temperature corrosion, and high wear.

Typical Material's Available
  • Tungsten Carbides
  • Nickel/Chrome
  • Aluminum/Iron
  • Copper/Aluminum
  • Aluminum/Nickel
  • High Carbon Steels
  • Chromium Oxide
  • Aluminum Oxide
  • Titanium Oxide
  • Mirconium Oxide
 
HVOF High Velocity Oxy - Fuel
 

The HVOF process distinguishes itself by high particle velocity and excellent coating qualities. The result of this high tech process produce's coatings with a low oxide content and good adhesion properties. This process is an ideal alternative to hard chrome plating due to its low porosity and very dense coating which can be polished to a smooth mirror finish.

 

Typical Material's Available
  • Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt
  • Tungsten Carbide/Nickel
  • Chromium Carbides
  • Stainless Steels
  • Copper
  • Aluminum/Nickel
  • Cobalt/ Molybdenum/ Chromium
 
Sprayed Nylons and Teflons
 

These protective coatings offer high adhesion, high lubricity properties in addition to providing excellent chemical and corrosion protection. These coatings are ideal for use in the... Marine, Chemical, Food, Construction, Steel, Brewery, Utility, and Ski Industries.

Advantages
  • Long term corrosion protection
  • Exceptional adhesion
  • Resistance to chipping, cracking, and abrasion
  • Wide choice of colors
  • FDA approved products available for food contact
