Metalizing with an Arc Spray System
NCS Is an SSPC QP1, QP2 & QP3 Certified Contractor:
We offer metallic coatings through an application process that uses a thermal spray system (i.e., arc spray) where molten or semi-molten materials are deposited onto a substrate.
Typical applications for metallic coatings:
- Bridge components such as beams, bearings, columns, diaphragms, and expansion joints
- Crane components
- Gate components
- Pipe and structural steel
Why use an arc spray system?
This thermal system is suitable for structures or components exposed to a wide range of environments. Treatment with the arc spray system can protect normally dry interiors or exteriors that are frequently exposed to water — from either just wet conditions or complete submersion. For components often exposed to saltwater spray or immersion, proper sealing and top-coating via an arc spray system can protect surfaces against acid-neutral and alkaline chemicals.
