Problems / Solutions

Flame spray gun : the wire is stuck inside the gun

Possible causes:

spare parts: check that the right spare parts (diameter, alloy) are installed under the right conditions;
metallising parameters: check the metallising parameters, follow the manufacturer’s instructions;
inadequate clearance: clean the nozzle hole with a suitable tool;
the wire is dirty or damaged: replace the wire with a clean wire. Prevent the wire from getting dirty, use wire spools;
the wire surface is corroded: a corroded wire can cause problems, always check the storage conditions (temperature, humidity, etc.);
knots: it is preferable to use wire spools;
the wire is twisted or not properly wound: replace the wire.
