BENEFITS OF THERMAL SPRAY COATING

Thermal spray coating is one of the best upgrades you can get for the machinery for your shop, as it provides a range of benefits that not only save you money in the long term, but enhance the performance, durability, and value of your equipment.

When you choose Wear Master to apply thermal spray coatings to the machinery in your warehouse, you’re setting your business up for reduced costs down the line. Repairing a worn machine with thermal spray is cheaper than outright replacing the equipment itself, and thermal spray coatings often last longer than the material the component was originally composed of. Thermal spray coatings extend the useful life of machinery. In some case studies, they’ve been found to extend machine’s useful lives by as much as five times!

You don’t have to worry about thermal spray coatings altering your equipment’s functioning, either. Thermal sprays are extremely versatile and can be applied to practically any metal, ceramic, or plastic component. Thermal sprays have a low heat input — with very few exceptions, thermal spray coatings will leave alone the thermal history of the component(s) they are applied to. Thermal spray coatings can also be applied in a variety of thicknesses. Depending on the material and condition of the component being sprayed, thermal spray coatings can be sprayed from one-thousandth of an inch to more than an inch thick. Thicknesses typically range from 0.005 to 0.1 inch. The thermal spray coating application process is also relatively quick. Thermal spray rates range from three to 60 pounds an hour depending on the type of spray and the material and condition of the component(s) being sprayed. For most materials, spray rates fall between half a pound to two pounds of material per square foot per one-hundredth of an inch thickness.

Thermal sprays also provide your machinery various levels of resistance to heat, weather, and wear and tear, depending on the type of thermal spray you choose. Wear Master offers four types of thermal spray coatings: plasma spray, HVOF coating, electric arc wire spray, and combustion thermal spray coating.
