Ceramic Coatings

Thermal spray ceramic coatings and trowelable, brushable ceramic coatings both serve extremely useful but very different purposes.

Thermal spray ceramic coatings produce surfaces in a wide range of textures that resist oxidation, abrasion, sliding wear and high temperature corrosion or they can provide thermal or electrical insulation.

Applications range from protecting wear areas on shafts (i.e. bushing and packing areas) to providing thermal barriers on hot sides of combustion equipment.

They are available in aluminum oxide, chromium oxide, titanium oxide and zirconium oxide bases. Maximum operating temperatures vary up to 1650° F/900° C.

Trowelable, Brushable ceramic coatings produce very smooth surfaces due to the fact that they are ceramic filled resin coatings. The resins and binders hold the ceramic particles in place throughout the coating.

Applications range from pump linings in abrasive wear applications to abrasive air handling equipment wear areas such as fans and elbows in air ducts carrying coal dust. These coatings can also be used to repair eroded areas of metal such as holes in the vanes of a pump impeller.

Maximum operating temperatures range up to 450° F/232° C.
