We have a solution for
wear problems
on marine propulsion systems!

Wear protection for marine propulsion systems

Hard, harder, hardest – this most exactly describes the load parameters of modern marine propulsion systems. Corrosion would still be the smallest problem, but there is also the impact of solids causing erosion as well as cavitation due to the high speed water flow. It’s a combination that quickly overwhelms conventional protection systems.

Soft, softer, softest – MetaLine® is not paint, not epoxy-ceramic, not rubber, not hard armor - but a blend of their properties: a durable, elastic protective coating that develops unprecedented resistance to erosion and cavitation through energy absorption.

MetaLine Series 700 – MetaLine Series 700 coatings combine in a unique way low surface tension (water repellent properties) low kinetic coefficient of friction (increased flow velocity) high visco-elastic impact character (improved erosion resistance) low hardness (increased cavitation resistance) Maybe a bit much physics at this point – but one thing is for sure: at MetaLine, we can adapt material parameters to a specific condition in a number and intensity unlike any other coating system in the marine world – for the sole benefit of your ship!

Scope of application:

Waterjets / jet drives
Transition ducts / deflectors
Rudder propellers
Kort nozzles
Bow / Stern thrusters
Thrust reversers
Tunnel thrusters
RIM thrusters
Propeller tail shafts
Shaft struts (V-brackets)



 

Kort nozzle coating
Kort nozzle coating – a convincing solution for problem areas under impact and corrosion stress. Conventional brittle epoxy ceramic products are not sufficient when it comes to vibration and wear. The elastomeric MetaLine technology will show you completely new problem solutions in this area . . .

Technical solutions in detail

MetaLine Series 700 –

MetaLine Series 700 coatings combine in a unique way

  • low surface tension (water repellent properties)
  • low kinetic coefficient of friction (increased flow velocity)
  • high visco-elastic impact character (improved erosion resistance)
  • low hardness (increased cavitation resistance)

Perhaps a bit too much physics at this point – but you can be sure of one thing: At MetaLine, we can adapt material parameters in a range and intensity to specific conditions unlike any other coating system in the marine industry - for the benefit of your ship!
