Product Description
Dymax SpeedMask 718 Maskant is an opaque gel maskant for temporary protection during thermal-spray coating processes. The material is used with air plasma spray, HVOF, wire arc spray, and D-Gun coating operations where the applied mask must resist the process and preserve selected component areas. Light cure converts the placed gel into a durable temporary barrier, and the stated removal route uses incineration after processing. The product is used specifically for thermal-spray masking rather than general-purpose coating. Its application value comes from gel placement, cured process resistance, and a defined post-process removal method across several spray technologies.
Key features
- Thermal-spray process coverage: The maskant supports air plasma, HVOF, wire arc, and D-Gun coating operations.
- Opaque gel placement: The gel form supports localized application and visible coverage before cure.
- Incineration removal route: The cured mask is removed by the documented burn-off process after coating.
Applications / Suitable for
- Air plasma spray
- HVOF and wire arc spray
- D-Gun coating
