Overview

          Reliable protection in extreme conditions

    Plasma spray coating is a thermal spray process that deposits molten particles onto a surface to enhance its resistance or impart new properties. To achieve selective and precise coating, sensitive areas must be protected with a high temperature masking tape.

    👉 Surface protection challenges in plasma spray applications:

    Plasma spray surface protection involves extreme conditions:

    RequirementSpecification
    Thermal resistanceUp to 315 °C
    AdhesionReliable on metals, composites, and ceramics
    Clean removalNo residue left after peeling
    DurabilityMaintains integrity throughout the entire spray cycle

     

    Choosing the wrong industrial masking tape can lead to coating defects and additional costs.

    High performance masking tapes are used across a wide range of industrial applications:

    • Masking functional areas on aerospace turbines and engine components.

    • Protecting medical parts such as implants and prostheses during plasma spraying of biocompatible coatings.

    • Masking automotive components during thermal treatments and plasma coatings.

    • Selective coating on industrial tooling and molds.

    • Temporary protection of machined or polished surfaces sensitive to overspray.

    • Use on high-performance composites requiring effective thermal and chemical barriers.

    Some specialized product ranges provide tailored performance for each stage of the process — from grit blasting to HVOF (High Velocity Oxygen Fuel) — and are qualified and approved for use in the aerospace industry, ensuring proven compliance and reliability.
