Wallwork Heat Treatment, the leading UK specialist in thermal processing and surface engineering, will be exhibiting at Professional Motorsport World 2025 on Booth 2030, Hall 10.1. The company will highlight its expertise in performance-enhancing treatments for motorsport components.

With decades of experience supporting demanding sectors such as aerospace, defence, and automotive, Wallwork brings unrivalled engineering knowledge and precision to motorsport applications. The company’s services include PVD and PECVD coatings, hot isostatic pressing, plasma and gas nitriding, advanced heat treatments, vacuum brazing, and super finishing. These are engineered to maximise the performance and longevity of gears, fasteners, engine components, transmission systems and more.

Quality assurance is at the heart of Wallwork’s operations. The company’s facilities hold both Nadcap accreditation and AS9100 certification, demonstrating their commitment to stringent process control, repeatability, and customer confidence. These globally recognised standards ensure that motorsport teams receive components treated to the highest levels of quality and consistency, directly translating into improved performance and reliability on the track.

Wallwork’s coatings and treatments offer motorsport engineers tangible competitive advantages. PVD and PECVD coatings deliver exceptional wear resistance and low friction, reducing power losses and extending component life under high-stress motorsport conditions. These ultra-thin and ultra-hard coatings also boost the load bearing abilities of lighter alloys often chosen by racing car engineers to reduce weight.

Hot isostatic pressing (HIP) enhances material integrity by eliminating porosity from cast and 3d printed parts. Essential in the rapid development cycles pushing forward innovation in motorsport. The company has invested over €24 million in the last few years in the latest advanced HIPs from Quintus Technologies.

Plasma and gas nitriding create hardened surfaces that resist fatigue and distortion. While vacuum brazing allows exceptionally strong bonding of similar and dissimilar materials. Combined with precision super finishing, these processes deliver components capable of withstanding the extreme demands of competitive racing.

The company’s nationwide footprint, with sites in Cambridge, Birmingham, Manchester, and Newcastle, ensures rapid turnaround for motorsport teams across the UK and beyond. Wallwork also provides a dedicated, easy-to-book transport service, enabling fast and reliable logistics that keep projects on schedule, even during the busiest racing calendars.

“Motorsport demands a perfect balance of strength, precision, and performance under pressure,” said Wallwork group director, Simeon Collins. “Our proven surface treatments, developed in partnership with aerospace and automotive leaders, provide motorsport engineers with the confidence that every component will perform when it matters most.”

Visitors to Professional Motorsport World 2025 are invited to meet the Wallwork team at Booth 2030 to discuss specific project requirements and discover how tailored surface and thermal processes can deliver a competitive edge.
