Valimet achieves Military Details specification for Cold Spray applications
May 20, 2025
Valimet, headquartered in Stockton, California, USA, has announced that it is now one of the validated sources for MIL-DTL-32495A(2). The Military Detail specification covers requirements for the procurement of powders used in cold spray technologies for the repair, coating and fabrication of near-net-shape parts. The base document covers only aluminium powders, while the revision (A) expands beyond that material.
The company’s spherical aluminium alloy powders for cold spray and Additive Manufacturing technologies have been qualified under PT#00014 for AM 2024C and PT#00015 for AM 6061C.
In its announcement, Valimet highlighted the work carried out by Lee Wardle and his team at the University of Dayton Research Institute (UDRI) on the company’s certification.
