Critical points
Joints, couplings, welds, gaps and cavities are assessed according to the geometry of the workpiece.
Sealing.
Sealing increases the protection of metal components and improves resistance to external agents.
The treatment reduces the risk of water ingress and corrosion in joints, welds, gaps and particularly critical areas.
Zoccarato Industrial Coatings integrates it into its own surface treatment cycles for demanding industrial applications.
What is sealing
Industrial sealing consists in applying specific products at the critical points of the workpiece.
The aim is to create a barrier against the ingress of moisture, water, dust or other contaminating agents, preserving the durability of the protective cycle.
It is defined according to the component and can be carried out before or after coating.
exposure to atmospheric agents
high humidity
corrosive environments
water ingress
From detail to durability
A targeted barrier at the vulnerable points of the workpiece.
Targeted application
Specific products are applied where protective continuity needs to be created and the entry paths of external agents reduced.
Protective barrier
The sealant limits the ingress of water, moisture, dust and contaminants in the most vulnerable areas of the component.
Integrated cycle
The treatment is inserted before or after coating, depending on the technical specifications and the required cycle.
The advantages
greater protection against corrosion
reduced water and moisture ingress
protection of the most critical areas of the workpiece
increased durability of the coating cycle
improved overall performance of the component
greater reliability over the long term
Where it is applied
Protective continuity on joints, edges and gaps.
Sealing eliminates or reduces the vulnerable points that could compromise the protection of the workpiece over time.
welds
mechanical joints
sheet-metal couplings
corners and edges
points subject to water stagnation
cavities and gaps
Every application is assessed according to the conditions of use and the required performance.
Sealing and anti-corrosion cycles
Integration into the highest-performance protection cycles.
Sealing is frequently integrated into cycles intended for particularly harsh environments, in combination with other surface treatments.

FAQ
When is sealing carried out?+
It can be carried out before or after coating, depending on the component, the geometry of the critical areas and the performance specifications required by the customer.
Which areas of the workpiece are sealed?+
The most frequent applications involve welds, joints, sheet-metal couplings, edges, cavities, gaps and points where water can stagnate.
Why combine it with anti-corrosion cycles?+
Sealing reduces the vulnerable points that can compromise the protective cycle, increasing durability and reliability in aggressive environments.
