Vibra-Tite TD-7 Thermal Defender: Dry Film Ceramic Weld Spatter Coating
Vibra-Tite TD-7 Thermal Defender is a dry film ceramic coating used to protect metal parts from weld spatter build-up. Thermal Defender® coatings shield surfaces from spatter, allowing inert gas to flow freely during welding, which reduces maintenance and increases productivity.
Thermal Defender TD-97 is a user-applied, dry film ceramic coating that is sprayed onto parts to protect them from metal weld spatter. It applies and dries in under a minute, so parts are ready for immediate use with minimal downtime.
TD-97 is a versatile product suited to a wide range of welding environments. Because of its low cost per application, TD-97 can be economically applied to protect practically any surface at risk of weld spatter damage.
