High Velocity Oxygen Fuel Spray (H.V.O.F.)

High Velocity Oxygen Fuel Spray (H.V.O.F.)

For High Velocity Oxygen (liquid) Fuel (HVOF) spraying, we use an oxygen-kerosene mixture. We axially feed the coating material, in powdered form, through the gun, generally using nitrogen as a carrier gas. The fuel is thoroughly mixed with oxygen within the gun and the mixture is then ejected from a nozzle and ignited outside the gun. The ignited gasses surround and uniformly heat the powdered spray material as it exits the gun and is propelled onto the workpiece surface.

Process basics
Heat source Fuel (liquid) and Oxygen
Material Powder (Metal)
Flame temperature Approx. 2,800 °C
Particle velocity 400 – 800 m/s
Spray performance 70 – 200 g/min

Key characteristics
  • Produces coatings that are very clean, hard, and dense with fine, homogeneous structures
  • Coatings are tenaciously bonded to the substrate
  • Has low compressive stress, which results in very thick coatings
Typical applications
  • Gate valves
  • Pelton turbines
  • Ball valves
