There are industries that use thermal spray technology more than ever before. This is mainly due to the increased knowledge of what thermal spray is capable of. Wear is the most widely know reason for use of thermal spray in most industries. In regards to wear; adhesive, abrasive, fretting, cavitation, erosion, and impact resistance are some of the reasons of its use. The list of industries that use thermal spray are endless. From Aerospace, Petrochemical, Oil and Gas exploration, Nuclear, Railroad, Automotive engines, Diesel Engines, Aero gas Turbines, Staitonary Gas Turbines, Hydro-steam Turbines, Electrical utilities, Mining, Construction, Dredging, and the list goes on and on. Below are two industries that lists some of the types of equipment that are enhanced by thermal spray.

• Petro Chemical Parts Hardfacing
• Oil Tool Parts Hardfacing
