Flame spray is a proven thermal spray coating process that helps protect critical oil and gas equipment from corrosion, erosion, extreme heat, and wear. From offshore platforms and subsea pipelines to pump shafts and refinery components, flame spray coatings extend equipment life, reduce downtime, and lower maintenance costs in some of the harshest environments on earth. This blog explores how industries use flame spray technology to improve reliability, refurbish worn components, and keep operations running efficiently.

Stellite 6 is a cobalt-based alloy coating known for its exceptional wear resistance, hardness, and corrosion protection. Widely used in industries like oil and gas, manufacturing, and power generation, Stellite 6 coatings help extend the life of critical components exposed to extreme heat, abrasion, and chemical attack. Learn how Stellite 6 works, where it’s used, and the advantages and limitations of this high-performance coating.

Thermal spray technology helps manufacturers scale sustainably by extending component life, reducing energy use, and minimizing waste. Discover how repairing instead of replacing parts can improve performance while supporting a circular economy.

Thermal spray coatings help power plants improve efficiency, reliability, and component lifespan by protecting critical equipment from extreme heat, corrosion, and wear. Learn how these advanced coatings reduce downtime, lower emissions, and support long-term performance across nuclear, gas, and coal power generation.

Automation is rapidly transforming the coatings industry. From AI-driven formulation design to robotic spray booths, discover how automation boosts efficiency, reduces costs, enhances safety, and drives innovation across coating applications.

Metal parts may seem indestructible, but part failure is a common challenge across dozens of industries. Many of your machinery’s most crucial parts and components fail not because of fracture but because of wear and tear. Weld overlays are a commonly used practice that can help you protect your most valuable assets from the destruction waged by daily corrosion and abrasion.

Cavitation commonly plagues many industries, including oil and gas, power, and chemical processing. This devastating process often goes undetected and can lead to wear, mechanical erosion, and increased maintenance costs. Left unchecked, cavitation can wreak havoc on not just your pumps but also your bottom line. 

Grip coatings are specialized materials that increase traction to prevent slips and secure items. By creating a rough, textured surface, these anti-slip applications significantly enhance safety in industrial, commercial, and transportation settings. In this blog post, you'll learn about the many benefits, common types (like epoxy and polyurethane), and practical applications of grip coatings, from factory floors to product packaging.

For decades, hard chrome has been the default solution for manufacturers in the automotive, industrial, and aerospace industries. Today, the newest generation of wear-resistant coatings is shaking up the industry, boasting an exciting range of sustainable and effective applications. 

Introducing the Next Generation of Wear-Resistant Coatings

Corrosion may be a natural chemical process, but this core industrial challenge is estimated to cost U.S. manufacturing and production industries over $500 billion per year according to the Federal Highway Administration. 

While thermal coatings can be instrumental in extending the shelf life of your equipment and machine components, it is crucial to do your research before hiring a supplier. From regular quality checks to lab testing, the right thermal coatings supplier should tick all the boxes.
