THERMAL SPRAY WIRES MARKET OVERVIEW

The global thermal spray wires market size was valued at USD 1.16 billion in 2024 and is projected to touch USD 1.99 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.9% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific holds leading position in thermal spray wires market share in 2023.

Thermal spray wires are coated with shielding material. The most shared kind of thermal spray wire is unique, poised of stainless steel which has been covered with copper or nickel-copper alloy comprising great stages of chromium and molybdenum. This covering offers defense against the atmosphere, corrosion, and wears in uses where visible to metal would promptly worsen. Thermal spray wires are not just limited to aerospace applications but they can also be used in applications such as bridge production, real estate growth, and mining.

The increasing demand for metal thermal spray wires in numerous businesses such as automotive and mechanical applications will foster the thermal spray wires market growth in the coming years. Moreover, rising funds in emerging countries will also fuel the development of this market globally.

COVID-19 Impact: Closure of Manufacturing Operations to Hamper Market Growth

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the upstream procedure of the thermal spray coatings market, due to the guidelines on imports and exports and postponed the lead period for replacement of raw materials. The industry experienced failure in the sector during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is credited to the severe reduction in automotive, industrial, and construction sectors. Moreover, owing to the decline in laborers in light of social distancing standards amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the industry observed substantial reduction in manufacturing. 

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Demand from Various Applications to Drive Market Trends

Growth in disposable income and spending power of users and progress in living standards of people across emerging nations such as China and India upsurge the demand for automobiles. The rising aerospace, automotive, heavy machinery and military & civil aircraft has directed an upsurge in use of thermal spray coating equipment. Thermal spray coating is used to coat piston and synchronizer rings in automotive uses. It is also used in aerospace application to coat engine turbine blades and safeguard it from varying temperatures, and confirm augmented dependability for stretched time periods. These coatings are substituting hard chromium coating as the favored coating process to provide enhanced performance. This factor is estimated to drive the progress of the market.
