Pure Nickel Powder [-170+325]

Thermal Spray Grade Nickel Powder

Pure nickel powders are a foundational material in thermal spray coating. They are widely used as a bond coat under ceramic top coats or as a standalone coating for corrosion protection and dimensional restoration on worn steel and iron components. The -170+325 mesh size (approximately 44 to 88 microns) is a common cut for combustion flame spray and plasma spray systems, offering a good balance of feedability, melt characteristics, and deposit efficiency.

This powder is supplied as a chemically pure nickel product, free from alloying additions, which makes it predictable in service. The coating exhibits good resistance to atmospheric corrosion, alkaline environments, and high-temperature oxidation. Typical applications include the repair of pump shafts, bearing journals, printing rolls, and other machinery parts where a machinable, corrosion-resistant layer is required.

Process Compatibility and Application Guidance

While this mesh cut is broadly compatible with common thermal spray processes, the optimal process parameters—such as flame type, spray distance, and feed rate—depend on the specific gun model and application. Our team can discuss your equipment setup to help confirm suitability. We recommend providing your spray gun model and base material details when enquiring so we can support a more targeted powder recommendation.

This powder is not pre-alloyed and is not intended for hardfacing or high-wear applications where carbide-based powders would be more appropriate. It is best selected for its purity, corrosion resistance, and bond strength as an undercoat or build-up material.
