Metalized Spray Coatings

Metalized spray coatings have been around a long time. Does the process still have an advantage over other types of spray coating processes?

• Metallized spray coatings have the ability to be built up to a greater thickness than the other coating processes.
• Metallizing was the first type of thermal spray process, developed in Europe around 1910.
• In an emergency metallizing can be used as a build coat for the Plasma or HVOF spray process when a heavy build up coat is needed and there is not time to remanufacture.
• Metallized spray coatings are the most economical of all the different spray systems.
• Metallized spray coatings are considered a "Cold Spray" process, meaning that it does not get the base material over 300 degrees F.
