MOLYBDENUM POWDER FOR SPRAYING HARD SURFACE COATINGS

MOLYBDENUM wire, as a coating material, is well known since molybdenum has many advantages as a hard bearing surface; it is highly scuff‐resistant and has a low coefficient of friction. Metco now announce a self‐fusing, high‐molybdenum powder which can be plasma flame sprayed to produce tough, wear‐resistant coatings on many types of base materials, and in thicknesses ranging from 0–1 to 3 mm.
