Coatings 

Expert preparation and application ensure long-lasting protection. Poor preparation leads to costly maintenance and downtime.

Coatings

Rudolphs have completed countless successful projects for many customers since 1971. We have the experience, qualifications, knowledge and passion to undertake any coating project in Northland, New Zealand and beyond. 

Metal Spraying

Metal Spraying, also known as Thermal Spray or Metallisation, is a process where metal is melted and sprayed onto a prepared substrate to protect it from corrosion and / or erosion. This versatile coating method can utilise various metals, including zinc, aluminium, and stainless steel, as well as metal alloys for customised solutions.

Key Services:

  • - Internal Surface Protection: Ideal for harsh environments like chemical processing facilities, including vessels, distillation columns, chemical storage tanks, boilers.

  • - Thermal Spray Aluminium (TSA): Offers superior protection against Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI).

Advantages Over Hot Dip Galvanising: 

  • - Unsightly drain holes are not required.
  • - Heat distortion is not an issue.
  • - Thickness can be tailored for added protection, even for specific areas of an individual item.
  • - Masking is possible if specific areas are to remain uncoated, eliminating the need to fully dismantle the item being galvanised.
  • - Unsightly runs and drips are eliminated.
  • - Metal spray can be over-coated for added protection, aesthetics, or identification without the need for further preparation.
  • - Alloys of metals, such as Zincalum (a blend of zinc and aluminium), can be applied if zinc alone is not suitable for the environment.
  • - There is no size limit for the item being coated.
