INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH COATING

One of the most effective methods of preventing metal failure is to protect the surface with an

industrial strength coating. This state of the art coating process utilizes high temperature and

precise techniques to help chemical and process industries run smoother with lower production

and replacement costs.

The purpose of coating is to lubricate and protect equipment parts which are exposed to

corrosive elements and high temperatures. A coated part can last substantially longer than a non

coated part depending on the environment in which it is exposed.

Metal coating or impregnation can cut costs of a company by saving on costly down time,

replacement costs and decreased friction leading to lower production costs.

Every problem is unique but not impossible to solve. C&C Coatings has a proven track record of

successfully handling a wide range of situations faced by industry today.

Protection Properties:

Nonstick: Very few solid substances will permanently adhere to a PTFE finish. Although

tacky materials may show some adhesion, almost all substances release easily.

Low coefficient of friction: The coefficient of friction of PTFE is generally in the range

of 0.05 to 0.20, depending on the load, sliding speed, and particular PTFE coating used.

Nonwetting: Since surfaces coated with PTFE are both oleophobic and hydrophobic, they are

not readily wetted. Cleanup is easier and more thorough – in many cases, surfaces are self-

cleaning.

Heat resistance: PTFE industrial coatings can operate continuously at temperatures up to

260˚C/500˚F and can be used for intermittent service up to 316˚C/600˚F with adequate

ventilation.

Unique electrical properties: Over a wide range of frequencies, PTFE has high dielectric

strength, low dissipation factor, and very high surface resistivity. By special techniques, it can

even be made electro conductive enough to be used as an anti-static coating.

Cryogenic stability: Many PTFE industrial coatings withstand severe temperature extremes

without loss of physical properties. PTFE industrial coatings may be used at temperatures as low

as –270˚C/-454˚ F.

Chemical resistance: PTFE is normally unaffected by chemical environments. The only

chemicals known to affect all PTFE industrial coatings are molten alkali metals and highly

reactive fluorinating agents.
