Thermal/metal spraying is widely used to repair corroded surfaces or provide a corrosion protection surface on ferrous metals. This process has been effectively used for many decades across a range of industries, such as the automotive, oil & gas, food production and packaging.

Metal spraying not only changes and improves the surface properties of the sprayed item, but it is often the most cost-effective solution when faced with inaccurate dimensions on worn, mis-machined or damaged components.

The sprayed surface will then extend the components lifetime, greatly increase its resistance to corrosion and lower overall production costs.

Molybdenum Coatings (Moly Coating) are commonly used in applications where load carrying capacity, operating pressure and coefficient of friction are primary concerns.

Thermal spraying involves the heating and projection of small molten particles onto a prepared surface where they adhere and form a continuous coating.

Upon contact, the particles flatten onto the surface, freeze and mechanically bond, firstly onto the roughened substrate and then onto each other as the coating thickness is increased.



There is a range of materials that can be applied using metal spraying techniques. At Befanco we carefully select the correct application to ensure the desired properties are achieved and components are able to perform as intended in their final operating environments.
