Zn-Al 85/15 Spray Wire 2.3 mm

Alloy Composition and Coating Performance

The Zn-Al 85/15 alloy is widely specified for anti-corrosion coatings in aggressive environments. The high zinc content provides active cathodic (galvanic) protection to steel substrates, while the 15% aluminum addition enhances the coating's hardness, durability, and resistance to atmospheric corrosion. This combination results in a coating that outperforms pure zinc in many industrial and marine exposure conditions, offering extended service life for critical assets.

Wire Diameter and Process Compatibility

This wire is drawn to a 2.3 mm (approximately 0.090 inch) diameter, a common size for high-deposition-rate thermal spray operations. It is typically used in electric arc spray systems, where two wires are fed into a gun, melted by an electric arc, and atomized by compressed air onto the prepared surface. It can also be used in certain flame spray wire guns. The consistent diameter and cast ensure smooth, uninterrupted feeding through drive rollers and liners, which is essential for maintaining a stable spray plume and uniform coating thickness.

Packaging and Handling

To support continuous production runs, the Zn-Al 85/15 wire is available in several pack configurations. Standard options include 15 kg, 20 kg, and 25 kg spools, as well as coil packs for larger volume applications. The wire is wound with precision to prevent tangling and ensure a smooth payoff during spraying. Proper storage in a dry environment is recommended to maintain the wire's surface condition and feeding characteristics.
