TAFA® Arc Spray Wires for Reliable Coatings
For consistency and reliability, TAFA® arc spray wires are the industry standard. Manufactured under strict quality controls, these wires are designed for thermal spray applications, meaning you get coatings that perform the way they should, without unnecessary downtime or rework. As a trusted TAFA® wire supplier, Astro Alloys makes it simple to source the wires you need, backed by the service and technical knowledge that keeps your operation moving.
Why Choose TAFA® Arc Spray Wires?
TAFA® arc spray wires are engineered for tight composition tolerances, precise surface finishes, and dependable spooling, so they feed smoothly and spray consistently. That translates into coatings you can trust, whether you're repairing high-value parts or protecting equipment that has to perform day after day.
These wires are manufactured to spec and tested to ensure they deliver the right hardness, tensile strength, and bond properties. That extra step of quality assurance gives you confidence that every spool will help you achieve the same high-quality results, job after job.
Built for Precision & Performance
One of the biggest advantages of TAFA® wires is consistency. Every reel is produced with the physical properties needed for arc spraying, so you don't waste time with misfeeds, defects, or inconsistent coatings. Level-wound spooling also ensures wires feed evenly, minimizing stoppages during critical applications.
This precision manufacturing means fewer surprises and a smoother spraying process. Whether you're running small batches or high-volume production, you can count on TAFA® arc spray wires to deliver coatings that are uniform, reliable, and cost-effective.
Cored Wires: Solutions Only TAFA® Can Deliver
Some compositions can't be drawn into a solid wire—this is where TAFA® cored wires excel. By enclosing powders in a metallic sheath, Linde AMT (the developer of TAFA® materials) has created advanced wire options that allow for unique coatings and cost-effective solutions.
In fact, TAFA® cored wires have already replaced plasma coatings in many aircraft engine repair and industrial wear applications, proving they can deliver equal or better performance at a lower overall cost. That kind of innovation gives you more options for tackling specialized repair or protection needs without compromising quality.
Applications and Industries
TAFA® arc spray wires are trusted across industries where coating performance can make or break productivity:
- Aerospace: Dimensional restoration, erosion resistance, and oxidation protection for engine and structural components.
- Automotive: Improved wear resistance for gears, brake components, and turbo housings.
- Power Generation: Wires like TAFA® 45CT provide oxidation and sulfidation resistance in boiler tubes and turbines.
- Medical & Industrial Equipment: Wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant coatings for tools, instruments, and precision machinery.
- Mining & Heavy Industry: Protection against abrasion and erosion in harsh operating environments.
No matter the industry, TAFA® wires help extend the life of critical parts and keep equipment running longer.
