Providing The Product You Need
For the automotive and transportation industries, ceramic, chromium carbide, and tungsten carbide coatings are especially effective to combat corrosion, preventing wear and tear and extending the service life of parts.
Ceramic Powders
Astro Alloys offers a wide variety of powder coatings for automotive parts including advanced ceramic spray powders that range from low-thermal conductivity thermal barrier coating (TBC) powders to high-purity aluminum and yttrium coatings.
Chromium Carbide Powders
Chromium carbide powders provide a dense, well-bonded, resilient coating well suited to handle fretting and abrasive wear. These coatings withstand high temperatures – up to 1500 degrees – and resist corrosion and oxidation.
Tungsten Carbide Powders
Tungsten carbide powders are commonly used in applications involving sliding wear erosion, impingement, abrasion, and fretting wear while providing low-temperature wear properties. Applying a tungsten carbide thermal spray powder creates a dense, hard, and tough coating.
