ASTM C633 Thermal Spray Coating Adhesion and Cohesion Testing
ASTM C633 is the test method for the adhesion or cohesion strength of thermal spray coatings. To match this to your program, talk with our team.
What ASTM C633 Covers
It measures the bond of a thermal spray coating to its substrate, or the cohesion within the coating, by applying tensile force normal to the surface.
How the Test Is Run
A coated specimen is bonded between loading fixtures and pulled in tension until the coating separates, and the strength is calculated from the failure load and area.
Why It Matters
Coating adhesion governs thermal-spray durability in service; tensile fixtures aligned normal to the coating and a suitable adhesive are essential.
