HVAF Guns for OD and ID Coatings
Uniquecoat’s M2, M2H, M3, M4, i5, and i7 single- and dual-stage combustion HVAF guns remain available for customers who value reliability, simplicity, and long service life. These guns are fully compatible with Uniquecoat’s pressure control systems, which provide all the process control required for their reliable operation, while mass-flow control can also be used when desired. These models form the foundation of our HVAF technology and continue to provide stable performance and consistently high-quality coatings.
M2™ HVAF Gun
(Single-Stage Combustion Design)
The M2 is a robust and proven single-stage HVAF gun designed for efficient coating of metals, alloys, and carbides using air–fuel combustion. Its simple, reliable architecture ensures stable operation, fair to high deposition efficiency, and the production of dense, low-porosity coatings with consistent quality and minimal maintenance requirements. The M2 also excels in applying impermeable Flash Carbide coatings, with or without the use of hydrogen.
M3™ HVAF Gun
(Configurable for Single- or Dual-Stage Combustion)
The M3 was the first dual-nozzle supersonic HVAF spray gun, introducing the dual-stage combustion principle to the HVAF process. It is a versatile system capable of operating in both single-stage and dual-stage modes, allowing precise control of particle heating and acceleration for a wide range of materials — from metals and alloys to hard carbides. In dual-stage mode, secondary combustion inside the extended nozzle increases jet temperature and particle velocity, enabling dense, high-hardness coatings with excellent adhesion, surface finish, and deposition efficiency.
M4™ - HVAF Gun
(Configurable for Single- or Dual-Stage Combustion)
The M4 builds upon the dual-stage combustion concept introduced with the M3, offering improved particle heating, higher deposition efficiency, and superior coating performance. It operates in both single-stage and dual-stage combustion modes, providing flexibility for spraying a wide range of materials — from fine HVAF-cut carbides to coarse HVOF-grade powders. In dual-stage mode, secondary fuel combustion within the extended nozzle compensates for thermal losses and boosts jet energy, producing dense, high-hardness coatings with excellent deposition efficiency and minimal oxidation. Its dual-nozzle design with air pre-heating further increases combustion temperature by redirecting process air to first cool the combustion chamber before entering it, enhancing both thermal efficiency and component life.
M2H™ Handheld Gun
(Single-Stage Combustion Design)
The M2H is a compact, simple, and robust handheld HVAF gun, designed for maximum mobility and ease of use in field or workshop applications. Its single-stage combustion system ensures stable and efficient operation, while the lightweight design and ergonomic handle provide comfortable manual spraying. The M2H excels in applying Flash Carbide, metal, and carbide coatings with dependable quality, high deposition efficiency, and minimal maintenance requirements.
i7™ Internal Spraying Gun
(Single-Stage Combustion Design)
The i7 internal-diameter HVAF spray gun is designed for high-performance coating of internal surfaces with carbide, metal, and alloy materials. Its variable nozzle configuration allows coating of IDs as small as 120 mm, while producing dense WC-based coatings with hardness up to 1550 HV300, porosity typically below 0.5%, compressive residual stresses, and negligible oxide pickup. High spray rates, durable construction, and minimal maintenance make the i7 well suited for demanding production applications.
i5™ Internal Spraying Gun
(Single-Stage Combustion Design)
The i5 internal-diameter HVAF spray gun is designed for high-performance coating of internal surfaces with carbide, metal, and alloy materials. Its variable nozzle configuration allows coating of IDs as small as 65 mm, while producing dense WC-based coatings with hardness up to 1200 HV300, porosity typically below 0.5%, compressive residual stresses, and negligible oxide pickup. Durable construction, reliable operation, and minimal maintenance make the i5 well suited for demanding industrial coating applications.
