Zinc Spray Metalising is an advanced corrosion-protection process where molten zinc is sprayed onto a prepared metal surface using a thermal spray gun. The zinc layer acts as a sacrificial coating, offering long-term protection even in harsh industrial and marine environments.
At SAI ASSOCIATES, we utilize state-of-the-art metalising equipment to apply coatings with precision and uniformity. This process is an ideal alternative to hot-dip galvanizing, ensuring excellent adhesion and extended durability without affecting structural integrity.
Provides long-term protection in coastal, marine, and industrial environments.
Creates a metallurgical bond that ensures strong coating adhesion and durability.
Unlike galvanizing, metalising does not distort or weaken the substrate material.
