Finally, a Metallizing and Thermal Spray expert who cares. Thermal Spray Depot, the alternative to Sulzer
Metco, Praxair Tafa, Eutectic, & Stellite
This site is dedicated to the thermal spray coating industry,
often also called metallizing, flame spray, metal spray, plasma spray, or spray welding. We supply complete
thermal spray systems, individual components, replacement parts, powder, and wire. We also supply auxiliary
handling equipment, dust collectors, and rooms. This equipment is used to spray metals, alloys, ceramic, and
carbide coatings
The thermal spray coating technologies we support include:
Laser Cladding – This is not a thermal spray technology; however, it is
such an important surface engineering process we have included this in our offerings.

Each category above has more detail within this web site; please take the time to explore our site and give us
some feedback of what you want to see in the future.
Thermal Spray Depot has partnered with niche companies that excel in their specialty.
That gives us the advantage to use companies who have specialized in their areas of expertise, while we can
still offer the service of going to one resource to for all your needs. All of the big name suppliers use other
sources to supply a portion of their equipment, powders, and wires; they just do not tell you that. We are
affiliates of the various companies that have specialized in specific niches of the thermal spray industry. Check
us out for your combusiton wire, combustion powder, electric arc, HVOF, cold spray, or plasma spray
requirements.
We strive to be the most cost effective
We have no desire to be the cheapest supplier; we want to be the resource for smaller companies to get solid
advice and the best, most cost effective solution for their coating requirements.
We don’t have a corporate suite with a large lobby
and a receptionist watching the door. Instead we invest that margin into quality materials used by our
affiliates.
You are buying a business, not just equipment or materials.
Many companies site today’s economic conditions as the reason for short comings. Our vision of doing business is
the same no matter what the business climate is. We want to provide the best products and services available
through any size company, and we want to provide the creativity and flexibility that only comes from
entrepreneurs.
When corporate policy is at times at odds with customer service, which one wins?
The feedback from our customers tells us that they are seeking an alternative to the 400
pound gorillas of the industry. The reason is pretty simple; we hear of examples of how the policies of the larger
companies get in the way of satisfying customer requirements.
We take credit cards without a credit application.
I was floored when I had a potential customer call me to get a rush shipment of parts he needed for his torch.
The unnamed large Thermal Spray Supplier would not take his credit card because he needed to fill out a credit
application first before he could use his credit card! Needless to say, we got the order and he had his parts the
next day.
We focus on privately owned Job Shops
