Maskant Materials
Maskant Custom Preforms
Maskant Custom Preforms are created for difficult-to-mask areas based on individual customer needs and specifications.
Maskant Materials
APV Engineered Coatings offers masking procedures and compounds to protect alloy/superalloy parts and assemblies from overcoating during high-temperature diffusion coating/processing.
The APV Maskant System has been long trusted in the gas turbine engine industry and can be used in diffusion coating for new or overhauled aero/jet engines and industrial engines.
The M-1/M-5/M-7/M-8/M-10 masking systems consist of dry powders, binders, and diluents. Slurry system components can be mixed at your location as required, or purchased ready-to-use. Several of the maskants can also be used dry, with no binders. All components of the system are tested chemically and metallurgically after processing and all masking materials are tested under actual coating conditions.
Features & Benefits
- Prevents Coating Formation
- Excellent Self Retention
- Easy to Implement
- Cost Effective Solution

Maskant Stripper
APV's Maskant Stripper is a blue crystalline compound used to remove aluminide coatings on nickel and cobalt super-alloys.
Maskant Materials
Ready-to-Use Slurries
R.T.U. slurries can be incorporated into high-temperature coating masking systems (R.T.U. M-7/B-4, M-10/B-4, M-107/B-4) where diffusion coating processes are above 1500°F or incorporated into low-temperature coating masking system (R.T.U. M8/B-4) where diffusion coating processes are below 1500°F.
Maskant Materials
Maskant Putty & Tape
APV offers a line of masking putty and tape as alternatives to masking coatings and powders for diffusion products.
Maskant Materials
Low-Temperature Maskant Products
APV's low-temperature coating masking materials prevent coating in selected areas during diffusion coating processes below 1,500°F (815°C).
Maskant Materials
High-Temperature Maskant Products
APV’s high-temperature coating masking materials prevent coating in selected areas during diffusion coating processes above 1500°F (815°C) for new and overhauled engines.
