Kyler Mech Powder Coating

Established in 2002 at the current premises in Anderbolt road, Boksburg.The factory size is 2500 square metre  factory /workshop  using some of the latest equipment and technology available. As a Jobbing Shop Specialising in powder coating , Kyler Mech offers a 7 stage zinc phospating process. This process pre-treats the steel to high levels of corrosion resistance in preparation for powder coating. For the more competitive price options , we also provide an Iron Phosphate process. We can also do stainless steel and galvanised material for any industry. Prior to powder coating , the goods have to be pre-dried. After pre-dry, they go through our spray booths for electrostatic application and then through the either the gas fired or infra-red electric ovens for curing. We also offer a full colour range as well for more creative applications. Kyler … More

Iron Phosphate Iron phosphate is the thinnest of phosphate films. In the application process, an iron oxide base is developed, followed by a flat or amorphous metal phosphate topcoat. The treated metal surface will typically have a gray to blue iridescent or blue-gold iridescent color, depending on the coating weight and the base metal. A typical iron phosphate consists of: •phosphate acid base • accelerators/oxidizers •surfactant package (optional) The first question you might ask is "Why Phosphate?" There are three major reasons why phosphating can be beneficial to your operation: 1. Form a stable inert coating on the metal surface. 2. Provide excellent paint adhesion. 3. Inhibit the spread of corrosion from a damaged area. Phosphate chemicals are mildly acidic solutions containing accelerators and surfactants. They can be applied over … More

Zinc Phosphate Treatment Prior to Powder Coating  Zinc phosphate  (Zn3(PO4)2) is an inorganic chemical compound used as a corrosion resistant coating on metal surfaces either as part of an electroplating process or applied as a primer pigment (see also red lead). Zinc phosphate coats better on a crystalline structure than bare metal, so a seeding agent is often used as a pre-treatment. There are countless applications of powder coating coupled with zinc phosphate pre-treatment. They include the finishing of refrigerators, pressure vessels for fire extinguishers, garden furniture, electric panels, steel fencing, car wheels and other car accessories. The degree of success in the devolopment of powder coating is largely governed by the outcome of advances in other environmentally-friendly processes such as high solids containing, water based paints … More
