To support your thermal spray activities, we offer auxiliary supplies that include grits for surface preparation, maskants to prevent grit blasting and coating in undesired areas, and post-coat sealer materials to help coatings last longer and prevent corrodants from penetrating the coating.
Pre-coat auxiliary supplies
Blasting media (grits)
| Metcolite high-quality alumina grit |
| Offered in several standard grain sizes |
| Designed to ensure a clean and consistent surface profile |
| Sharp-edged and hard |
| Lasts for many blast cycles |
Maskants
We offer several different masking options to prevent unwanted coating in specific areas:
Masking tapes
| Designed to withstand the rigors of the thermal spray process |
| Removes cleanly after coating |
| For High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) applications, we offer HP Flame Spray Masking Tape |
Liquid masking compounds
| Designed for masking more complex geometries |
| Several different liquid masking products are available to suit differing production requirements |
| Easily applied |
| Washes or peels off without leaving a residue |
Post-coat auxiliary supplies
Sealers
To seal the inherent porosity of thermal spray coatings and further enhance corrosion resistance, use our Metcoseal portfolio of sealer materials:
| Product choices designed for various applications and service conditions |
| Simple to apply, requiring only an air dry or a low-temperature cure in an air oven |
| Low Volatile Organic compound (VOC) and VOC-free sealers available |
