Ultimate Abrasion Resistance
Innovation & Technology
HVOF Thermal Spray Technology
HVOF (High-Velocity Oxygen Fuel) thermal spray technology allows us to apply coatings with extremely low porosity and high bond strength. A mixture of fuel and oxygen are combusted within a thermal spray gun producing temperatures near 6,000 degrees F (330 degrees C).
Powder particles are injected into the high-pressure gas stream created by the combustion and accelerate down the barrel of the spray gun at several times the speed of sound. At these speeds and temperature conditions, semi-molton particles adhere to the substrate with superior bond strength--exceeding 10,000 PSI. During coating application, the product rotates methodically in front of the HVOF thermal spray gun until the coating builds to the specified thickness. This process creates the strongest bond and highest hardness value as compared to any thermal spray process.
Coating Formulas for Ultimate Effectiveness
Precise Performance
Our Coating formulations have been designed for optimal effectiveness with our thermal spray application processes. Our winning CarbideX coating formulations combine tungsten carbide and carefully selected alloys or metals to provide the most economical wear solution available. By producing coating materials from micro and sub-micron raw material we assure high bond strength with uniform conformance to the most complicated shapes and surfaces. We constantly test new formulations for a growing range of products and applications that result in even great thoroughness, consistency, and performance enhancement.
