The fibrous nature of paper product and caustic nature of ink can cause extensive waer and corrosive issues. Thermal spray coatings have developed ceramic, carbides and hard metal coatings for the protection of rolls and other paper converting equipments.

Thermal spray coatings serve three purposes (1) providing superior wear resistance (2) have a high coefficient of friction for excellent pulling or pushing of paper (3) have a low coefficient of friction to prevent wet paper or adhesives from sticking to a rolls surface. Advantages include :
Paper roller
