TH605 Industrial Floor Coating
TH605 is a dual-duty coating made from aluminum and silicon carbide, providing both corrosion protection and a non-slip coating for metal surfaces. Its hard silicon carbide ensures excellent wear resistance, making it ideal for industrial and heavy-use environments.
TH605 is a cored wire, consisting of an aluminum sleeve filled with silicon carbide. The production process involves forming a flat strip of aluminum into a "U" shape, depositing silicon carbide powder inside, folding it over, and drawing it to size. The aluminum provides sacrificial properties for iron and steel substrates and acts as a binding matrix for the wear-resistant silicon carbide.
This corrosion-resistant spray coating ensures a long-lasting surface that offers both anti-slip properties and durability against wear.

- Cost-Effective Operation: Requires only electricity and compressed air, reducing operational expenses.
- Portable and Mobile: Equipment and materials are easy to transport, allowing for seamless application in the field or a shop environment.
- Easy to Apply: Low skill level required for application, with minimal training needed for successful results.
How is TH605 Applied?
TH605 is applied using the Twin Wire Arc Spray Process, also known as metalizing.
- Two spools of TH605 wire are mounted on either side of the arc spray machine.
- One wire is energized positively, the other negatively. As the wires get close, an arc forms, melting the material.
- Dry compressed air atomizes and propels the molten material toward the substrate.
- The semi-molten particles solidify in flight, creating a strong and durable coating upon impact.
The Twin Wire Arc Spray Process only requires electricity and compressed air, making it an inexpensive and portable method suitable for both field and shop applications.
