Plasma Spray Tapes
Extremely high temperature and high abrasion call for masking materials that must withstand these forces during expected ‘dwell time’ parameters. Masking materials, including tapes and compounds must remain in place, resist burning and edge lifting, and prevent unwanted overspray and/or damage to the part being sprayed. All Green Belting Industries Plasma Masking Materials are precision made with the highest quality Silicone, Fiberglass, Adhesives and Compounds to ensure optimum performance in this harsh setting. All are easy to work with, offer high flexibility and conformability, and can be removed cleanly and easily following the spray process, leaving leave no adhesive residue.
Green Belting masking tapes are engineered to meet the demands of a wide range of thermal spray coating processes, including plasma spray. They offer superior performance due to the following attributes:
- Abrasion Resistance - The types of coatings and thicknesses used are engineered to resist the abrasive forces of both the grit blast and flame spray coating processes. Green Belting tapes can be applied once for both grit blasting and flame spray coatings.
- Strong Adhesion of Tapes - Masking tapes exhibit high adhesion to metal and to themselves (to prevent flagging).
- Resistance to Heat Transfer - From the substrate to the coatings and adhesives, Green Belting masking materials are engineered to resist the extreme temperatures of thermal spray coating processes including plasma spray.
- Highly Conformable - Green Belting tapes are easy to work with and conform well to surface contours in more complex masking applications.
- Clean Release - Despite high adhesion, the tapes are designed to remove cleanly with no adhesive residue.
Recommended materials: 170-10S YL & 20S YL, 170-10S Green, 170-10S Red, 179-20S or 25S.
*Ongoing laboratory testing ensures that Green Belting Industries Thermal Spray Masking materials offer industry leading performance in measures of strength, resistance to extreme temperatures, resistance to abrasion, and adhesive performance (strength of adhesive on metal, face-to-back adhesion, and clean removal).
