We Know A Thing Or Two
About Harsh Environments
Any company that works with tools and equipment exposed to harsh environments struggles with unexpected downtime, frequent replacement cycles, repair expense, and the cost of maintaining a high inventory of spares.
We fix this by providing unique PVD coatings (Physical Vapor Deposition) to combat wear in a wide range of applications. These coatings are not a superficial surface treatment, but rather a chemically bonded surface modification, part of the substrate, harder than nails, with engineering tolerance maintained.
OUR COATINGS HAVE BEEN TASKED WITH
PROTECTING PARTS FROM THE OIL FIELD TO
THE OPERATING ROOM.
A few specific examples of how our coatings are put to use…
- Resisting the grind and scrape on the platform and two miles below the surface in the oil field.
- Defending against the bombardment of pitting and blasting elements as a plane breaks the 30,000 foot ceiling or hits the flight deck at 150 mph for the aerospace industry.
- Protecting your manufacturing tools and critical parts against perpetual abrading, pounding, chafing and galling.
- Insulating tools in the operating room and safeguarding medical devices.
- Acting as barriers to etching and abrasive wear at chemical complexes and power plants.
- Preserving extruders, molds, and machinery that produce food for our homes on farms and in processing plants.
- Fighting adhesion wear and providing lubrication to gears, bearings and wheels that operate in oil-less environments.
In short, our coatings are ready to be anywhere you need to protect critical parts from abrasion, adhesion, fatigue and corrosion.
