COMMERCIAL - Preparation work for Shotblasting and Powder Coating for - 'COMMERCIAL USE'...

Here at Maldon Shot Blasting & Powder Coating Ltd carry out trade work high and long lasting standard.

We are very aware that other’s offer a cheaper service, however we DO NOT cut corners and offer a professional service.

The material governs the approach we take on the first stage preparation.

Steel work will be blast cleaned where required to remove mill scale and any surface rust.

 

Primers and Polyester coatings.

All parts may be blast cleaned or de-greased & phosphated as standard practice and can have a self-healing AKZO NOBLE (PZ770) primer applied as an optional extra and semi cured a polyester coat then applied to the primer, this is normally done whilst the work is still hot from the fist stage, this allows better adhesion and promotes further coverage in the hard to reach places as joints and corners.

To view the data sheet for PZ770 please follow this link.

If you are on a fixed cost we will offer just a one coat system, this in it self will stand the test of time as all commercial parts are de-greased & phosphated.

 

For extra and very long lasting protection.

The advantages of using Plascoat over normal powder coating products are many fold, acid and salt resistant, chip proof and very flexible.

Plascoat is ideal for protection of Railing work, flat sheet steel or any other material

With a colour range, for further information please visit:-  http://www.plascoat.com.

Plascoat can have a further polyester topcoat applied to achieve another colour not available in the Plascoat range facilitating ultimate protection and the colour choice required.

Thermoplastic coatings offer a thick protective layer to the metal and are often used either to protect the underlying e-coat from chip or impact damage or to provide a "cushion" effect for parts that are in contact with each other.

Here are just some of the excellent properties of Plascoat:

      Flexibility, can be stretched 1000% before coating fails.

      Damage to coating can be repaired easily be repaired.

      Significantly higher UV resistance.

      Very low toxicity.

      No plasticisers, chlorine or halogens.

      Low temperature performance to -70°C.

      Does not shrink or become brittle in hot weather.

      Harder coating.

      Higher impact strength

      Higher stone chip resistance.

      Salt & acid resistant.

      Will not fade or peel.

Bondi Beach - latest for PPA 571

Plascoat's PPA 571 thermoplastic coating has been chosen to provide corrosion protection for new telephone boxes along one of the most famous beaches in the world - Bondi Beach.

Telstra, Australia's leading telecommunications provider, has recently installed the newly designed boxes and the long term evidence of PPA 571's performance in the filed, has played no small part in this decision.

PPA 571 was the industry's first thermoplastic polymer alloy coating to provide a long-lasting tough coating for exterior applications. PPA 571 has over the years, proved beyond doubt its capability to withstand the harsh effects of coastal salt, intensive UV rays, 100% humidity, dessert winds and rapid temperature fluctuations - key requirements for Telstra's beach-front installations.

Another key feature of PPA 571 critical in such an environment is a coating's ability to offer some protection against graffiti. Telephone boxes have for years been a target. Graffiti paints can easily be removed from the coated surface using either a plain cloth or common solvents.

Water pipes - 11 year test
A long term field test monitored by the Swedish Corrosion Institute has resulted in remarkable findings for functionalised polyolefin alloys such as PPA 571.

After 11 years of being buried in the salty clay soils around Gothenburg six water pipes coated with thermoplastic polyolefin alloys were dug up for examination and were found to be in outstanding condition.

The pipes showed absolutely no rusting, cracking or flaking. In fact all of the test pieces were deliberately damaged before they were laid and the spread of these defects such as scratching, holes and blow marks were also found to be nil.

The Swedish Corrosion Institute has indicated that water pipes in similar conditions, coated with Plascoat PPA 571 would have alifetime of over 200 years.

PPA 571 has been used for water pipes all over the world from snow making in Switzerland to the seaport in the US city of Seattle. It has a wide range of water approvals including NSF61 and conforms to the requirements of FDA food contact.

PPA 571 is available for both fluidised bed and electrostatic spraying. see more
