Arc Spray
Two wires are electrically charged in opposite directions. When the wires come in contact with one another, the wires melt. A stream of compressed air then propels the molten particles to a prepared work surface to form a coating. Arc spray coatings are an economical option for restoring parts back to size while providing good wear resistance.
