Every successful HVOF coating starts with proper surface preparation. Before coating, each component is precision ground and carefully sand blasted to remove contaminants and create the right surface for strong coating adhesion. This important step helps the coating bond securely, improving wear resistance, durability and long-term performance.
At S F Manufacturing, we restore and protect hydraulic cylinder rods, pump shafts, rollers, pistons, sleeves, valve components and other precision-engineered parts used across the mining, construction, manufacturing, agriculture, marine, oil & gas and heavy transport industries throughout Australia.
Using premium tungsten carbide and chrome carbide materials, our High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) coating process creates a hard, durable surface that resists wear, corrosion and erosion. After coating, every component is precision ground to its exact finished size, ensuring accurate tolerances, a quality surface finish and reliable performance.
From precision grinding and sand blasting to HVOF coating and final grinding, every stage is completed with careful quality control to deliver longer component life, less downtime and lower maintenance costs.
Surface preparation prior to coating
Thorough cleaning, grit blasting and profiling of the component surface to ensure maximum coating adhesion and bond strength
Application of HVOF coating to component surfaces
Precision thermal spray application of HVOF coating to the required areas - achieving a dense, low-porosity protective layer
Build-up of worn areas where required
Restoring undersized or worn component surfaces to original dimensions through controlled HVOF material deposition
Grinding and finishing to required dimensions
Post-coat precision grinding and finishing to achieve the exact surface finish and dimensional tolerances specified
Inspection of coated surfaces and finish quality
Thorough quality inspection of coating thickness, surface finish and bond integrity before the component is approved for return
Preparation for continued service use
Final checks and packaging to ensure the component is ready for immediate reinstallation and continued service operation
Component surfaces worn beyond tolerance, reducing performance and service life
Base material too soft for the operating environment – HVOF delivers significantly harder surface protection
Components exposed to moisture, chemicals or abrasive media requiring a protective barrier coating
Scored, pitted or impact-damaged surfaces on high-value components requiring restoration rather than replacement
