Flame Spray Powders

We supply our own range of powders, but can offer other brands as required, just ask our sales team and they will provide price and availability.

The list below details a selection of the range of Flame Spray powders available. If the powder you are searching for is not listed, please contact us with your enquiry as in most cases we will be able to source it for you.

Powder Name	Description	Applications	Approx. Hardness	Nominal Composition
MSSA 91	MSSA 91 is an inexpensive low carbon steel powder for thermal spraying. The coatings it produces are easily machined with good wear resistance in lubricated service, but have low resistance to corrosion and oxidation.	Bearing journals Press fits Shafts Hubs, etc	20-29 Rb	Iron based low carbon
MSSA Ni 109	A Ni-Al primary composite bond coat powder containing typically 5% Aluminum. When flame sprayed, the particles go through a metallurgical phase change that allows self bonding to clean oxide free metal surfaces except Copper. Used as a bond coat on properly prepared surfaces to a thickness of 100µ to 200µ.	Bond Coat		Ni, Al
MSSA 443	A Ni-Cr-Al self-bonding composite powder for excellent resistance to high temperature oxidation and corrosive gases. Can be finished by Carbide tools or grinding. For salvage and buildup of Ni and Ni alloys where high temperature oxidation is encountered. MSSA 443 is NOT self-bonding when Combustion sprayed though it exhibits high bond strength; hence correct surface preparation is advised for combustion sprayed coatings. However with the Plasma Spray process, it is self- bonding.	Resurfacing bearing and seal surfaces Building up and repairing castings	80-92Rb	Ni, Cr, Al
MSSA 452	Composite self-bonding powder. Good for low cost salvage and restoration.	Restoration of of carbon or corrosion resistant steels and cast iron. High temperature corrosion/oxidation resistance	80-85Rb	Fe, Ni, Al
MSSA Ni453	NI 453 is a general purpose Mo/Ni/Al composite powder producing coatings that are self bonding, internally strong and have good wear resistance even with applications dealing with a high degree of impact wear.	Hydro-electro valves Exhaust fans Wear rings Press fits Pump plungers Seal areas	80 Rb	Al 5.5%, Mo 5.5%, Ni Balance
MSSA 953	MSSA 953 is a one step aluminium bronze powder suitable for spraying through most Thermo spray equipment. The coatings offer good wear resistance and can be used for soft bearing applications. May require a bond coat.	Worn and mis-machined parts Piston guides Bearing Surfaces Compressor air seals Pumps Copper Alloy Surfaces	80-85Rb	Copper-Aluminium Alloy
MSSA 960	MSSA 960 is a one step, general purpose coating material designed for maintenance and salvage/repair applications. Coatings produced either by plasma arc or flame spraying are free machining and exhibit excellent wear and oxidation resistance up to 815°C. During spraying MSSA 960 reacts exothermically to produce self-bonding, high strength, low shrinkage coatings capable of relatively thick buildup without cracking or lifting. These versatile, high integrity coatings are particularly suited for the buildup and repair of mis-machined and worn parts.	As a bond coat under ceramic and stainless steel or nickel chromium For salvage and build-up of mis-machined or worn To resist fretting wear of machine bed ways, wear rings, bearing To resist abrasive particle erosion to exhaust valve seats and manifolds. To resist oxidation and corrosion of mufflers, heat treating Diesel components e.g., connecting rods, firedecks, cylinder heads.	85Rb +/- 5	Fe, Ni, Al
MSSA 1448	An inexpensive Iron base self-bonding composite powder containing Aluminium as an exothermic component. Can be used for heavy buildups without cracking. Not recommend- ed where temperatures above 3800°F are encountered or for corrosive atmospheres. Can be finished with Carbide tools.	Bearing journals Hydraulic rams, seals, Mis-machined and worn out components	85Rb	PROPRIETORY
MSSA 4744	MSSA 4744 is an inconel type flame spray powder. It is produced by a proprietory process and is a self bond one step powder which bonds to a properly prepared metal surface. It produces stainless type coatings with good wear and high corrosion resistances with excellent oxidation resistance.	Bearing journal Mechanical sea Press fits Pump rotors and shafts Water turbine nozzles Mis-machined and worn out machine elements Propeller shafts Pump sleeves	80Rb	Ni, Cr, Mo, Fe, Al
