Cerakote
Cerakote is a thin-film ceramic coating that is available in over 200 unique colours. This product can be applied on to metals, polymers and wood.
Cerakote offers outstanding chemical and corrosion resistance compared to coatings such as nitriding, DLC and blueing. Certain series of Cerakote can withstand temperatures up to 1800°F without discolouring or failing. This coating is applied at a thickness of 0.001-0.003” which make it great for high tolerance areas.
IT IS ALL IN THE DETAILS
-
Specific requirements
Certain projects require specific surfaces preserved for various reasons like preserving tolerances. Our technicians can mask these areas to ensure the end product functions as intended.
-
Extensive preparation
Parts are thoroughly cleaned and degreased to ensure that there is no external contamination on the surface of the items. Prepared items will then be masked and sandblasted to achieve a sufficient etch profile to which the Cerakote will adhere. Following sandblasting the parts will then be baked in an oven to remove any remaining moisture and oils. Once the items are ready to be sprayed they go for a final inspection. Following spraying with Cerakote, coated parts are returned to the oven for a final and full bake to cure the coating
