Metal Spraying

Metal Spraying gives a high quality finish and a range of advantages:

• Coatings are available for prompt use with no drying or curing times.
• Higher level of bond strength than most other thermally sprayed deposits.
• Zinc metal spray is suitable for protection of up to 200°C.
• Aluminium metal spray gives protection against temperatures of up to 400°C.
• It is often specified in preference to galvanising for its ease of application without the need for drain/vent holes.

The Metal Spraying Process

Metal spraying is the application of spraying molten non-ferrous metals. The molten material which is propelled on to the surface is atomised by a cone of compressed air.

All metal sprayed items are blast cleaned to S.A.3 prior to being metal sprayed.

On contact the molten spray solidifies onto the surface to form a dense, strong, adherent coating. Once completed, products can be given a decorative finish, depending on customer requirements.
