Applications

See details of our work coating components for an array of aerospace applications:

Interior Components (Passenger Planes)

For over 30 years, Plastic Coatings has coated passenger plane interior components. Using aerospace approved powder coatings, we provide a cost effective and hard-wearing coating system solution.

Internals of Wiring Conduit 

With more than 20 years of experience, we have coated the internal surfaces of aerospace wiring conduits. The use of low-friction coatings in this context helps minimise abrasion to wire insulation as well as reducing snagging for a smoother installation.

Bus Bars 

We have over two decades of experience coating bus bars for the aerospace industry, with a dedicated page for information on bus bar coatings.

Bearing Journals (Helicopters)

Plastic Coatings has coated bearing journals for helicopters for over 20 years. We produce a hardwearing, load bearing and low friction coating for bearing journals, machined back to exacting tolerances for use in helicopters and other high-performance applications.

Clack Valves (Aircraft Engines)

Plastic Coatings is experienced coating clack valves used in aircraft engines’ fuel delivery systems. We use Emeralon/ Bonderite 310 for this application, building a precise coating thickness through many thin layers. The material is then cured to exacting standards for maximum performance and longevity.

Our Process

Plastic Coatings is home to one of the widest coating product and service ranges delivered under one roof.

Working with components of all sizes and complexities, we provide a range of coating materials covering thermoset and thermoplastic polymers, fluoropolymers, electrophoretic paint, primers and more.

Alongside this, we’ve invested in the latest equipment across 13 state-of-the-art coating lines, for shortened lead times without compromising quality.
