ArmorGalv Australia is the first plant of its kind in this country. The ArmorGalv coating technology is called thermal diffusion galvanizing. A uniform, sacrificial, zinc-iron coating is applied to any ferrous item using a metallurgical vapour diffusion process. It is a corrosion resistant and abrasion resistant coating solution that helps increase part life, even in the world’s harshest mining and marine environments. ArmorGalv creates multiple layers of protection. Think of it like the skin of an onion with each layer harder and more corrosion resistant than the previous one. In contrast to other galvanizing methods, thermal diffusion galvanizing does not leave any areas of the product ungalvanized. This is because the formation of a zinc coating by means of diffusion is not hampered by the product's geometry. Thermal diffusion galvanizing can be applied to steel, cast iron, stainless steel, powdered metal parts and aluminium. Some industries that have experienced the benefits of ArmorGalv technology include mining, rail, transport, construction, marine, engineering, wind power and automotive. ArmorGalv provides cost effective, environmentally friendly corrosion protection. Its offices and factories are located just outside of Newcastle, in Thornton.
