Rudder protective coating - above 18 knots speed, the need for high-performance cavitation protection increases, which simply can no longer be provided by steel and paint. MetaLine 785 is now also used directly by rudder manufacturers, especially on ferries. More reference is not possible!
Rudder profile coating - MetaLine 785 has been used very successfully for over 10 years to protect the rudder profile of new-build frigates and corvettes. Locally where it is required and not on the entire rudder blade. Coating thickness from 2 to 6 mm (80 to 240 mils) seamless and absolutely flow harmonious!
Costa bulb™ coating - what an unimaginable load! And yet the elastic technology of the MetaLine 785 has proven its worth here too! Do you have any questions about this image or can't believe it? Simply take a screen shot and send it to us by email. We will get back to you!
Propeller coating - the last resort when all other design measures fail in the event of strong cavitation. Propeller coatings are the exception because they slightly change the geometry and also have an impact on efficiency!
Rudder blade coating - MetaLine 785 as a special cavitation protection coating on this rudder blade of a container ship (5,760 TEU). Working with a family-owned company like MetaLine means: short distances, quick decisions and clear statements! Just give it a try
Rudder blade coating - an excellent product requires equally excellent workmanship! This MetaLine 785 cavitation protection measure (yellow) is not for shipyard painters but for wear protection experts. The result is a service life that is currently absolutely unique!
Rudder coating - MetaLine 785 was applied to the problem areas of the rudder of this container ship, which are subject to cavitation. The cartridge spray process is superior in every respect to the brush application of conventional epoxy ceramic coatings in terms of speed and professionalism
Skeg coating - the rudder fins are often exposed to particularly intensive cavitation attacks on the underside. The rubber-like MetaLine 785 skin can react more quickly than steel to the alternating tensile/compressive stresses in cavitation. It is state of the art that softer materials are preferable to harder ones in cavitation. . .
Cavitation protection coating - this application failed, of course! Because the user - contrary to our instructions - applied the elastomeric edges far too close to the load area. Frugality in completely the wrong place! Please ask us BEFORE - and not afterwards why it failed?
Rudder horn repair - the elastomeric protective properties of MetaLine 785 have established themselves as an effective weapon in the fight against cavitation. However, the procedure must be carried out by MetaLine certified experts - and not by painters or welders in a shipyard. There is NO substitute for experience and expertise!
Rudder coating against cavitation and wear - on these multi-mission frigates (FREMM), MetaLine 785 protects the two rudder blades - as standard ex works - from the enormous thrust energy of the 38 megawatt gas turbine
Fins stabilizer protective coating - isn't good paint enough to protect these stabilizers? MetaLine elastomer coatings are always understood as additional safety! Especially on the underwater hull, which can only be serviced in dry dock, such an additional MetaLine “insurance” makes sense!
Rudder blade cavitation protection - this is what severe cavitation damage looks like: Localized, sharp-edged, deep and dangerous. And this is what the solution looks like: Soft, rubber-like surface properties that can withstand simultaneous pressure and tension better than steel: MetaLine 785!
Cavitation protection coating - MetaLine 785 (beige) after more than 5 years in use on this Danish 231 meter ferry. All previous coating measures using epoxy ceramics were worn out after a maximum of 12 months
