What Is Powder Coating?
Powder coating is a multi-stage metal finishing process that applies a fine layer of specialized dry powder to the surface of electrostatically charged metal parts. This surface coating, which consists of resins, fillers, and pigments, will resist cracking and flaking for an attractive finish that promotes long-lasting part performance.Â
Before applying the powder, we’ll pre-treat your parts through washing or sand-blasting processes to remove any dirt, oils, and grease. Then, we’ll electrically ground the parts and, utilizing an electrostatic spray gun, apply the electrically charged coating in your preferred thickness. Once coated, the parts proceed into an industrial gas convection oven set to between 350 °F and 450 °F to harden the coating. The specific oven temperature and curing duration depend on factors like part size, coating type, and coating thickness.
Curing parts using the proper timeframe and temperature causes the necessary cross-linking of the coating’s polymer chains. This ultimately ensures successful adhesion between the coating and the part, resulting in a smooth surface finish with the desired gloss and coloring. While achieving the desired appearance for your parts, powder coating also enhances their durability.Â
Powder-coated metal components can better resist wear, impact, fading, moisture, salt and chemical exposure, corrosion, and extreme temperatures. Also, compared to other industrial coating types, powder coating is advantageous because it doesn’t require long drying periods, shortening overall turn times. It’s a more environmentally friendly option than painting part surfaces, giving you the desired look and color you want without the perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that some paints contain.
