Thermal Spraying with Plattzinc® 85/15 Zinc/Aluminum Wire
Metallines - The Corrosion Bulletin: The 85/15 Alloy
JPCL - Dam Metallized in Freezing Conditions to Beat Schedule

Platt Brothers manufactures both zinc and zinc/aluminum wire used primarily in the thermal spray process.

Wire Diameters are:.057" .064" .079" .091" .125" .1875"

Packaging is available in coils, continuous wire payoffpack drums, and spools.

Finishing is available as either bright or lubricated finishes depending upon the thermal spray equipment used.

Same day shipping service can be provided from either our headquarters in Waterbury, Connecticut or our Little Rock, Arkansas warehouse, depending upon available stock and destination.

Pure Zinc Wire: Plattzinc zinc wire is 99.99% pure zinc wire. A pure zinc wire coating offers atmospheric protection to steel superior to conventional paint coatings by three basic forms:

1. Barrier protection
2. Formation of zinc corrosion products that protect both the coating and the steel from the environment.
3. Galvanic action; the zinc coating corrodes in preference to the steel.

Melting Point: 787.0 Bond Strength: 1000 psi Max. Service Temp : 140
VOC: 0 Coating Coverage per pound @ 6 mils: 3.5 sq. ft./lbs.


85/15 Zinc/Aluminum Wire: Plattzinc 85/15 wire is an alloy of 85% zinc and 15% aluminum by weight. When sprayed onto steel, the alloy produces a coating with the best characteristics of both metals for optimum corrosion protection. This alloy is especially effective on steel against sodium chloride(salt), sulfur dioxide and marine environments.

Melting Point: 824.0 Bond Strength: 800-1000 psi Max. Service Temp. 600
VOC: 0 Coating Coverage per pound @ 6 mils: 4.3 sq. ft./lbs.
