The IMC metalizing technology sold as Red Devil 888 is a scientifically advanced and fully patented electric arc metalizing process utilizing thermal spray applications.

Our Red Devil 888 technology is backed by more than 20 patents and provides a much higher quality surface protection than any other alternative, including traditional metalizing technologies like

electric arc, plasma, flame, HVOF spraying, galvanizing, cladding or similar. IMC metalizing offers an impeccable surface protection solution that is far superior to any conventional epoxy

or polyurethane paint coating systems.

Metalizing is the most effective long-term surface protection solution.

Application: The metalizing process melts metal or metal alloys using an electric arc and applies our patented Red Devil 888 coating by using compressed air to apply it

on previously prepared surfaces.

IMC Metalizing Process:

7 / 47

‣ Our process uses only electricity, air, and pure alloys.

‣ Electrically isolated metalizing wires are oppositely charged by a Lincoln DC 1000 amp rectifier.

‣ Dual wire control feeds enable a continuous arc and molten alloy is propelled, providing a substrate using 375 CFM compressed air.

‣ The molten alloy rapidly cools on contact with the substrate to form a completely non-porous protective coating.

‣ No additional cooling or curing of the coating required and your surface is ready for immediate use!

The Advantages of IMC’s patented technology:

‣ Significant savings in perpetual maintenance costs, labor and materials

‣ More than 50 years lifetime

‣ Less than 1% porosity

‣ Resistant to abrasion and the impact of chemicals, gasses, salt, water or soil, including high temperatures!

‣ Short application time leads to a much shorter downtime and a surface that is instantly ready for use

‣ Adhesion strength is much stronger than paint

‣ Metalizing lasts 40 times longer than paint and other coatings

‣ Anodic and cathodic protection provides full coverage of your underlying surfaces. For example Zinc metalizing is applied to concrete surfaces and provides cathodic protection for rebar in the concrete

‣ Does not degrade when exposed to thermal cycling

‣ Application is possible in extreme conditions, independent of outdoor temperature, extreme cold or heat, and independent of humidity in the air or whether the structure is wet

Additional IMC metalizing advantages:

‣ Enjoy a significant reduction of the indirect damage your businesses face from equipment shutdown and loss of production

‣ Metalizing coatings are not affected by UV exposure

‣ Unlimited thickness of application - we have applied thicknesses over 25,000 µm

‣ Creation of permanent “non-stick” and antifouling surfaces

‣ Repair corrosion damage

‣ Build up pitted and corroded areas to original thickness

‣ Capable of spraying any metal or alloy

‣ All equipment is mobile and not limited by the surface shape or size

‣ The base chemical structure of the materials remain unchanged

‣ Materials that can be metalized include: metal, concrete, plastic, fiberglass and more

‣ May be used alone or with other coatings

‣ Eco-friendly: No volatile organic compounds or chemicals

12 / 47

IMC metalizing advantages compared to cladding:

‣ 100x higher productivity per operator

‣ Apply a thickness ranging from 0.1 mm to several cm

‣ There is practically zero diffusion of the base materials into the applied layer

‣ Low temperature loads protect the base material properties from deformation

‣ Greater heat transfer coefficient

‣ Due to the minimal thickness required, the weight of the structure is often reduced

‣ No constraints on application due to the shape of the construction

‣ Even complete overhauls can be done in the field without any dismantling or transportation to the shop required

‣ Significant reduction of equipment shutdown time and productivity loss

‣ Large cost savings of materials, labor, equipment, time and production loss as well as a major reduction of deadlines improves your ROI significantly

Service life expectancyThe Service life expectancy of the metallized surface is more than 50 years. Depending on the thickness of the application,

material used and the environment to which the structure is exposed, durability may also be significantly longer.

For example, when metalizing a steel structure in a splash zone, zinc consumption is 2-3 µm per year. If the thickness of the metalizing zinc coating is 250 µm the protection provides an expected lifespan of between 85 and 125 years.

The service life expectancy of metalizing has been thoroughly tested under various conditions by prominent institutions including: the American Welding Society Subcommittee on Metalizing, SINTEF, the U.S. Navy, ECCS, St. Andrews Lock and Dam Corrosion Protection System, the U.S. Air Force, SAIC, German Southern North Sea Program Study, Bethlehem Steel Corp., LaQue Center,

the Norwegian Institute for Air Research, the U.S. Army, the National Cooperative Highway Research Program and more.

Surfaces with or without IMC metalizingCaribbean Dockyard, Port Chaguaramas, Chaguaramas, Trinidad i Tobago

During a comparison of a steel surface partially protected by IMC, reporting showed that after 3 years of exposure in severe corrosive conditions there has been significant corrosion and damage to the unprotected surface. The non-corroded surface was protected with IMC metallization.

No damage or corrosion occurred after 3 years in the same environment.
