Zn-Al 95/5 Spray Wire 3.0 mm

Understanding Zn-Al 95/5 Alloy for Thermal Spray

Zn-Al 95/5 is a widely specified pseudo-alloy in the thermal spray industry. The 95% zinc content provides active cathodic protection, sacrificing itself to protect the steel substrate even if the coating is scratched or damaged. The 5% aluminum addition enhances the coating's hardness and provides a stable, passive oxide layer that slows the consumption rate of the zinc, extending the service life of the coating in atmospheric and immersion environments.

This wire is commonly used as an alternative to pure zinc or pure aluminum wires when a single-layer coating system needs to offer both high initial activity and long-term durability. It is frequently specified for bridges, marine structures, wind towers, and other critical infrastructure.

Thermal Spray Process Compatibility

The 3.0 mm diameter is a standard size for high-deposition-rate arc spray systems. It can also be used in large-bore flame spray guns. The wire is manufactured with consistent diameter tolerance and cast to ensure smooth, uninterrupted feeding through drive rollers and contact tips, minimizing downtime caused by wire tangling or burn-back.

Process fit should always be confirmed based on your specific gun model and parameters. SPA2Z can assist with technical consultation to verify compatibility with your equipment.

Packaging and Handling

We understand that efficient production depends on packaging that integrates seamlessly with your workflow. This Zn-Al 95/5 wire is available in the following standard pack options:

• 15 kg spool: Ideal for smaller jobs, testing, or guns with limited spool capacity.
• 20 kg spool: A common industry standard, balancing weight and run time.
• 25 kg spool: Maximizes continuous spray time for high-productivity shops.
• Coil pack: Available on request for systems using coil-fed drums or dereelers.

All spools are wound with precision tension control to ensure consistent payoff. Proper storage in a dry environment is recommended to maintain wire surface quality.
