Case Studies
TSA Coatings Provide Anti Corrosion Protection to Safeguard the Future of the Burj Al Arab
Reason for use: Corrosion protection of large structure in coastal environment Previous Next Download PDF Related Products Arcspray 701(16)-CL View Product Metal or thermal spraying is a technology, which protects and greatly extends the life of a wide variety of products in the most hostile environments and in situations where
Metallisation Equipment Key to Refurbishment of Cornish Swing Bridge
Reason for use: Refurbishment and corrosion protection. The historical Ross Swing Bridge by the Isles of Scilly ferry port on Penzance sea front is currently undergoing a major refurbishment to improve its appearance, reliability and reduce the costs of future disruption and maintenance.
Metallisation Equipment uses TSA Coatings to Protect Footbridges
Reason for use: Corrosion protection to Network Rail N1 specification. Solent Protective Coatings Limited (SPC) recently purchased additional metal spraying equipment from Metallisation in order to fulfil another contract win.
Professional Coatings Adds Zinc Metal Spraying to Its Coatings Range
Reason for use: Corrosion protection of architectural steelwork.
Metal Spraying is Huge Success with Electro Metal Depositors
Reason for use: Corrosion protection of premium products in harsh environments Metallisation customer, Electro Metal Depositors, is a huge fan of metal spraying and says its clients are thrilled with the results.
Application Data Sheets
Multivoid aluminium tubing for AC Condensers
Reason for use: Corrosion protection and brazing during assembly. Corrosion of heat exchangers for automotive air conditioning units can be a major problem. The unit is often located near the front grille of the vehicle and hence is exposed to a severely corrosive environment, with road salts, rain and high temperatures all contributing
Seam Spraying of Pre-coated E.R.W Tube
Reason for use: Corrosion protection of the weld area on a pre-coated steel tube. Tube is produced on a tube forming mill by Electrical Resistance Welding of the longitudinal seam. By using pre-coated steel strip, tube with enhanced corrosion resistance can be produced.
Example Applications
Radio / Radar / TV Masts
Reason for use: Long term corrosion protection of inaccessible objects, reducing requirement for regular inspection and maintenance. A typical example of current trends is provided by a 30.48 M (100ft) mast commissioned for the North Thames Gas Board, for installation at its headquarters.
Internal steelwork with high humidity
Reason for use: Protection of condensation corrosion in area such as swimming pools, breweries, wineries, pasteurising plants etc. The roof structure of an up-to-date dispatch department situated at the premises of ‘Frederick Robinson Breweries Ltd’ has been treated for anti-corrosive protection using one of the Metallisation systems.
Chassis Components
Reason for use: To provide corrosion resistance without heat distortion to irregular and large shaped chassis’. The problem of corrosion on road vehicles is receiving ever-increasing attention and various systems are being devised to protect private cars.
Road and Rail Bridges
Reason for use: Long term corrosion protection in hard to access areas. Aluminium used to protect steel from road salts corrosion. Thermal or metal spraying steel to protect it from corrosion has always been recognised as a long-term solution for many industries.
