NICKEL CHROME (80/20)

Introduction:

PGI 80/20 wire are products appropriate for general use. The materials show an exothermic reaction during  the spray process. Also produce coatings with high bond strength that self bond to most metallic substrate, except the copper and tungsten based materials .

It can equivalent to TAFA 06C. MEC 821

PGI 80/20 is widely used for electrical arc thermal spray application, it can produce dense well bonded coatings with excellent machine ability, electrical conductivity and high temperature oxidation resistance up to 1800 degrees F (980 degreesC) widely applied to repair machine parts. Electrical and high temperature corrosion applications.

PGI 80/20 coatings produced have a high degree of structural integrity, are dense and can tolerate elevated temperatures and oxidizing atmospheres. The addition of chromium , in some cases substantial amount, enhances their high temperature corrosion resistance.

Surface Preparation:

Surface should be clean, white metal, with no oxides (rust), dirt , grease, or oil on the surface to be coated. Note: it is best to handle

Surfaces after cleaning. Recommended method of preparation is, to grit blast with 24 mesh aluminium  oxide rough grind, or rough machine in a lathe.

Typical applications

1.Oxidation Resistance
2.Heating Elements
3.Thermocouples
