Strengthening Surfaces with Metal Spray and Zinc Wire Technology
All industries experience a continuous challenge with corrosion, wear and environmental deterioration. The need for hard-wearing surface protection has never been greater, driven both by infrastructure projects and equipment that operates in severe environments. Metal spray technology, complemented by the use of zinc wire , presents opportunities across industries that improve longevity and reliability. Metal Spray: The Science of Protection Essentially, taking its most basic form, a metal spray is a thermal process whereby molten – or semi-molten – metal is sprayed onto a prepared substrate. The sprayed particles adhere to each other to form a protective coating which is impervious to corrosion, abrasion, and heat. Unlike traditional painting or galvanising, metal spray produces a mechanical bond that is tough, versatile, and durable. There is no shortage of applications, from coatings on pipelines to bridges to the repair of worn machine parts. By selecting the proper spraye...
