We are committed to developing and enhancing our range of high temperature and sacrificial coatings. Not restricted in our vision, we are attempting to find the best solution using both organic and inorganic alternatives.
IP9138 High
Heat Resistant Air Drying Aluminium Coating.
MSRR 9040 (Alt to PL82 - E 3592)
A one part air drying, erosion resistant organic coating with resistance to heat, corrosion, and aircraft fluids. For use on steel, aluminium, and other metal parts, this product is routinely tested for 100hrs at 500°C, 100hrs in ester lubricant at 150°C and skydrol for 3hrs at 70°C. Although often used as an air drying touch up for sacrificial products such as our IP 9139, PL 101 , Sermetal W and our Ipcote, it is also used as an air drying high temperature product in its own right. Being skydrol resistant, it is used for, amongst other things, undercarriage and wheel protection.
IP 9029 High
Heat Resisting Lead Free Aluminium Stoving Enamel.
MSRR 9029 (Alt to PL 101 - E 3746)

For use on steel, aluminium, titanium etc. IP9139 is used as a high temperature organic coating in normal use, but gains sacrificial properties when processed at 550°C. Superior in performance to PL101, this material has been recently re-formulated to improve thicker film capabilities, and runs at 100°C hotter as well as beng lead free, unlike PL101.
IP 9253 Organic
Sacrificial Aluminium High Heat Coating.
MSRR 9253. (Alt to PL 219 - 3863 - A 6000)
Used on aeroengine and other components as an organic sacrificial coating up to 600°C on 12% Cr steel, and 500°C on low alloy steel, this aluminium filled coating resists aggresive medial such as skydrol and salt spray, it becomes a sacrificial corrosion protective coating if stoved at 560°C.
IP Coat. IP 9183 to MSRR 9140
Used typically as a coating on turbine blades and other parts, this product becomes sacrificial at 350°C glass bead peened, and also if stoved at 560°C with low Chromium V1 content. Tested to 1000hrs high temperature and salt water resistance. As an alternative to such products as Alseal, Sermetal W, Ceracote 484, Ipcote is the base of a range of other high temperature sacrificial coatings including thin film coatings for bolts, flanges, etc, and very smooth coatings to enhance performance.
IP Seal. IP 9184 to MSRR 9140
