Further Advances In Paperless QA For Coatings Inspection

Product Number: 41211-604-SG

Author: JF Fletcher

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

It is often said that inspection processes save money but that inspection reports cost money. The automation of inspection processes is an important cost saving that also leads to more time being allocated to the important task of inspection. There have been recent developments in both software and gauge design, which together make paperless quality assurance a reality for all protective and industrial coating applications.

How Have the Latest Instrument Developments Changed the Way We Measure Profile?

Product Number: 51219-173-SG

Author: David Barnes

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

Recently new instruments have been introduced into the market for measuring the profile/roughness of blasted surfaces. One of the major developments is the ability to use scanning technology to rapidly assess a surface and provide profile measurement. This paper looks at the new instruments and the potential impact they can have on the measurement of profile and the benefits to the inspector in terms of the improved efficiency available in completing an inspection.

Improvements to the Replica Tape Test Method (ASTM D4417C / NACE SP287 / ISO 8503-5)

Product Number: 51324-21157-SG

Author: Michael Beamish

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

The Replica Tape method is a trusted method used by inspectors worldwide for decades to measure surface profile height. Previous studies have shown the method to be highly precise and accurate, but an intricate burnishing technique and requirement to average two different grades of replica tape in some measurement ranges made the method challenging for some users. This paper details two proposed changes to the method: an updated burnishing tool and linearized measurement scale to eliminate the need for averaging. A study was conducted to determine the accuracy and precision of this updated method, involving measurements performed by 15 users of varied experience on a range of test panels blasted with varying of media and profile heights.

Limpeza por Jateamento Abrasivo Úmido de Metal Branco

Product Number: SSPC-SP 5 (WAB)-2015-NACE WAB-1-2015-Portuguese

Publication Date: 2015

$179.00

Esta norma conjunta da SSPC/NACE define o processo de preparação de uma superfície de aço-carbono ao grau de metal branco de limpeza superficial usando um método de jateamento abrasivo úmido (WAB) de limpeza. Esta norma destina-se ao uso por especificadores, aplicadores e inspetores de revestimentos ou outros cuja responsabilidade seja definir um grau padrão de limpeza superficial para superfícies de aço-carbono a ser alcançada por limpeza por jateamento abrasivo úmido.

A limpeza WAB é um processo que usa uma mistura de água e abrasivo que pode produzir diversos níveis de limpeza e perfil (aspereza) superficial similar aqueles obtidos por limpeza por jateamento abrasivo seco (DAB). A limpeza WAB pode ser especificada quando se deseja supressão de pó, e também pode ser um meio de reduzir a contaminação por sais solúveis. O nível de limpeza WAB especificado deve ser o mesmo que o grau de limpeza especificado correspondente para o processo de limpeza DAB.

Major keys to Cost Effective Surface Preparation for Superior Coating Performance Corrosion Protection and Long Service Life

Product Number: 41209-505-SG

Author: Hugh J Roper, Joseph Brandon

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

This presentation will outline the results and conclusions of a number of years of testing and experience in surface preparation for high-performance coatings. Testing has shown that there are a number of important surface preparation variables that are not routinely monitored and controlled on coating projects. These variables will be identified and guidance will be provided on appropriate treatment to achieve coating results.

Methods for the Measurement of Surface Profile in the Field

Product Number: 41210-538-SG

Author: John Fletcher

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

The SSPC Surface Profile Committee has been preparing a specification for the measurement of surface profile based on the four methods described in ASTM D4417, Standard Test Methods for Field Measurement Of Surface Profile of Blast Cleaned Steel. These methods are surface comparators, surface profile depth gauges, replica tape and the stylus profile gauges.

Myth or Fact: Higher Surface Profile Increases Coating Adhesion

Product Number: 41216-969-SG

Author: Brad Gooden

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Many coating product data sheets call for surface profiles of 3-4 mils. Others call for 1.5-2 miles surface profile for a very similar coating type – why should this be? To start to understand this we need to first of all look at why we measure the surface profile on steel surfaces. It pretty much comes down to two main things.

NACE No. 6/SSPC-SP 13-2018, Surface Preparation of Concrete

Product Number: 21082-SG

Publication Date: 2018

$179.00

HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. This NACE International/SSPC joint standard practice covers the preparation of concrete surfaces before the application of protective coating or lining systems. The standard includes two updated tables, Table 1 details classes of surface preparation, and Table 2 provides minimum acceptance criteria for concrete surfaces before coatings are applied and relevant test methods. The updated Appendix (nonmandatory) includes two additional tables, Table A1 provides typical surface properties of finished concrete, and Table A2 provides an extensive list of surface preparation methods for concrete surfaces. This standard should be used by specifiers, applicators, inspectors, and others who are responsible for defining a standard degree of cleanliness, strength, profile, and dryness of prepared concrete surfaces.

NACE SP0287-2024, Measurement of Surface Profile of Metal Surfaces Using a Replica Tape

Product Number: NACE SP0287-2024

Publication Date: 2024

$109.00

The purpose of this standard is to describe and characterize one procedure for measuring the surface profile of metal surfaces. The measurement technique uses a compressible foam that replicates the surface profile. The thickness of the compressed foam (with the profile replicated) is then measured with a micrometric thickness gauge to determine the surface profile. Other common methods of measuring surface profile are not discussed.

Power Tool Cleaned Surfaces New Insights into Surface Profile Measurement

Product Number: 51218-166-SG

Author: Dr. Rebekah Wilson & Brooke Divan

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

This paper will evaluate methods used to measure surface profiles created by power tools, namely air needle scalers, bristle cleaners, and roto peen scalers. Particular focus will be placed on the use of replica tape and its ability to characterize profiles of various surfaces using a digital replica tape reader with 3D imaging capability. More specifically, this paper will determine if the measurement methods described in ASTM D44171are appropriate for the measurement of profiles produced by power tools.

Preparing Hot-Dip Galvanized Coating Surfaces for Painting

Product Number: 41215-908-SG

Author: Thomas J. Langill

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Duplex systems, also known as painting over hot dip galvanized steel, are extremely effective corrosion protection systems. However, careful surface preparation techniques need to be used to alleviate potential coating failures. The age and characteristics of the galvanized coating should be used to determine what type of surface preparation is needed. Surface preparation should develop an anchor profile for the paint without removing the zinc coating.
