Provide a protective wear layer or rebuild parts back to original dimensional integrity.

Best Used For: 

This technology is used to rebuild surfaces back to original dimensional integrity.

Plating

Plating often involves two process materials and/or steps where the first material bonds to the base material and serves as the primer for finish plating.

Benefits: 

A wide range of surface property enhancements.

Best Used For: 

A wide variety of applications.

Best Used For: 

Tank coatings in a wide variety of industries.

Thermal Conductive

Thermally Conductive and Semi-Conductive Coatings do not significantly impede the flow of heat in or out of the substrate that is coated.

Benefits: 

Provide other unique surface properties such as cut and abrasion resistance or release.

Best Used For: 

These are used in applications where rapid heat transfer is important, such as heated and chilled rollers.

Thermal Insulating

Thermal Insulating coatings prevent the substrate from giving up internal heat or absorbing heat from an external source.

Benefits: 

Temperature uniformity and efficient heat transfer.

Best Used For: 

A wide variety of applications.

Thermal Spray

Method of applying materials onto a base material by heating particles, creating a semi-molten state. Particles then propelled by high velocity onto a substrate and adhere via a mechanical bond.

Benefits: 

This technique is considered the "cold method of welding", where high temperatures can be achieved in the heated pocket, while the temperature of the part itself usually remains under 200°F.

Best Used For: 

Utilized to apply metal and ceramic based coatings.
