Thermal Spray Coating for
Automotive Components
Precision coatings for engine, transmission and turbocharger components where the goal is lower friction, controlled wear and a repeatable surface finish on a production line.
Components We Coat in Automotive Industry
Cylinder bore coating on aluminium blocks
Piston ring and ring groove wear surfaces
Synchroniser ring friction coatings
Turbocharger housing heat and wear protection
Gearbox shaft and seal journal reclamation
Typical Outcome
Typical outcome: lower running friction and repeatable bore finish without changing the base component design.
Coating Processes Used
Twin wire arc spray for bore and journal coatings
Powder flame spray for self-fluxing friction surfaces
HVOF for carbide-coated ring and shaft faces
Coating Materials Specified
Molybdenum for low-friction running surfaces
Copper-aluminium bronze for synchroniser friction
NiCrAl bond coat on aluminium substrates
WC-Co for high-load wear faces
