Thermal Spray
High-performance coating technology for wear, corrosion, and heat protection across industrial applications.
About Thermal Spray
Thermal spray is a surface coating process used to apply metals, alloys, or ceramics onto a substrate to enhance its resistance to wear, corrosion, erosion, and high temperatures. The process involves heating the coating material in powder or wire form and projecting it onto a prepared surface using a high-velocity gas or plasma jet.
At Shivshakti Metal, we specialise in thermal spray materials, powders, and accessories, providing complete coating solutions for a variety of industries, from power generation, oil & gas, and aerospace to manufacturing and heavy engineering.
As a trusted thermal spray supplier and manufacturer in India, we also distribute Oerlikon Metco and Kennametal products to meet international standards for performance and reliability.

Different coating requirements call for different spray technologies. At Shivshakti Metal, we provide materials suitable for all major thermal spray techniques:
Flame Spray Coating
A cost-effective thermal spray method where powder, wire, or rod materials are melted by a flame (oxy-acetylene or oxy-propane) and sprayed onto the work surface using compressed air.
Advantages:
- Ideal for large surface areas
- Lower equipment cost
- Suitable for metals, ceramics, and plastics
Applications:
- Shafts, pumps, bearing housings, and hydraulic rods
- Repair of worn components
- Anti-corrosion coatings in marine and industrial environments
Plasma Spray Coating
An advanced thermal spray technique using a high-temperature plasma jet (up to 15,000°C) to melt and propel coating materials onto the substrate, forming dense, high-performance coatings.
Advantages:
- Produces very strong, uniform coatings
- Works with refractory materials (ceramics, carbides, oxides)
- Suitable for critical industrial and aerospace components
Applications:
- Turbine blades, piston rings, aerospace engine parts
- Medical implants and precision components
- High-temperature insulation and oxidation protection
Why Thermal Spray Coatings?
Thermal spray coatings are ideal for protecting and restoring components exposed to extreme service conditions. They offer:
- Enhanced surface hardness and wear resistance
- Superior corrosion and oxidation protection
- Reduced maintenance and downtime
- Extended component lifespan
- Compatibility with metals, ceramics, and composites
Applications
Thermal spray coatings are widely used across industries for protection, restoration, and performance enhancement:
Power generation (turbine blades, pump parts)
Oil & gas (valve seats, shafts, sealing surfaces)
Marine and offshore structures
Aerospace and automotive industries
Chemical and process equipment
