Precision-applied thermal spray coatings developed to meet the stringent performance, quality, and documentation requirements of aerospace manufacturing.
APS Materials is a trusted supplier to General Electric's Aircraft Engine Group (AEG), providing qualified thermal spray coatings for jet engine and aerospace hardware. Every coating is backed by rigorous metallurgical analysis, validated process controls, and comprehensive documentation to ensure compliance with customer specifications and aerospace quality requirements.
APS Materials combines qualified thermal spray processes, application-specific material selection, and strict quality controls to protect components from wear, oxidation, thermal degradation, and other service-related failure mechanisms while maintaining dimensional stability and operational reliability.
As a NADCAP-certified thermal spray provider, APS Materials operates within tightly controlled process parameters to ensure repeatability, traceability, and compliance with aerospace specifications.
This coating creates a controlled wear interface that allows rotating assemblies to cut into the coating without damaging mating surfaces, helping maintain tight tolerances, optimize airflow efficiency, and reduce fuel consumption.
Formulated for oxidation resistance and thermal stability at elevated temperatures, its strong bond integrity and resistance to thermal cycling make it suitable for engine components exposed to sustained heat and aggressive operating conditions.
These specifications are in the process of qualification and are not yet approved for production work. They are listed to show where we are extending our aerospace capability. Ask us about current status before specifying one.
A dense, low-porosity coating offering exceptional hardness and resistance to abrasion, erosion, and surface wear. Commonly selected for aerospace hardware requiring dimensional stability under severe service conditions.
A composite coating that combines corrosion-resistant nickel with the lubricating characteristics of graphite. It reduces friction, minimizes galling, and promotes reliable operation in moving assemblies and contact surfaces.
A tightly controlled aerospace coating specification used in mission-critical components where performance consistency, traceability, and environmental resistance are essential. Defined by strict OEM requirements, it is engineered for applications that demand stability under thermal cycling, vibration, and oxidative stress.
