Thermal Spray Coating for
Aerospace Components
Thermal barrier and wear coatings for turbine hardware, landing gear and ground support equipment, applied with the process control and thickness repeatability that airframe and engine overhaul work demands.
Components We Coat in Aerospace Engineering
Turbine blade and vane thermal barrier coatings
Landing gear strut and actuator wear protection
Combustion chamber and liner heat shielding
Abradable clearance-control seal coatings
Seal ring, shim and bushing dimensional restoration
Typical Outcome
Typical outcome: coating thickness held within a few tens of microns after grinding, returning parts to drawing tolerance.
Coating Processes Used
Powder flame spray for ceramic and abradable layers
HVOF for dense WC-Co wear faces on gear components
Twin wire arc spray for bond coats and build-up
Coating Materials Specified
NiCrAlY bond coat under ceramic top coats
Yttria-stabilised zirconia for thermal barriers
Alumina-titania for wear and dielectric surfaces
WC-Co for landing gear and actuator hardware
