Copper Coatings for Corrosion and Conductivity
Thermally sprayed copper provides a tough, low-porosity layer that resists atmospheric and saltwater corrosion. It is widely used as a protective undercoat or a standalone functional coating. The coating exhibits excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, making it suitable for applications where current transfer or heat dissipation is critical.
Unlike paint or plating, a sprayed copper coating can be applied on-site to large or complex geometries without size limitations. The 1.6 mm wire diameter is a standard choice for high-deposition-rate arc spray guns, balancing melt efficiency with a smooth, controlled spray pattern.
Process Compatibility and Selection
This wire is suitable for both twin-wire electric arc spray and oxy-fuel flame spray processes. The exact process fit—arc or flame—should be confirmed based on your specific gun model, nozzle setup, and coating requirements. Our team can help verify compatibility when you enquire.
For arc spray, the 1.6 mm diameter typically pairs with standard drive rolls and contact tips. For flame spray, it feeds through compatible wire guides and melts cleanly in an oxy-acetylene flame. We recommend confirming your gun manufacturer's wire diameter specification before ordering.

Applications
Where this coating wire is commonly used.
Corrosion Protection
Sprayed copper coatings shield steel structures, tanks, and marine components from atmospheric and saltwater corrosion.
Electrical Conductivity
Creates conductive tracks and contact surfaces on non-conductive substrates like ceramics, plastics, or composites.
Dimensional Restoration
Rebuilds worn or machined copper alloy parts back to original dimensions before final finishing.
Anti-Seize Coatings
Applied to threaded fasteners, flanges, and mating surfaces operating at high temperatures to prevent galling.
