Xylan Coatings

Xylan® Coatings are a family of fluoropolymer coatings designed for use on various types of OEM components and fasteners, including xylan coated bolts to prevent corrosion. Most Xylan® coatings contain PTFE or other types of lubricants and are applied in thin films. Xylan coating is a dry film lubricant.

Xylan Coatings provides:

lubrication and controlled friction

wear resistance

heat resistance

Nonstick and release properties

can also protect from corrosion

Solving problems with Xylan

Xylan® Coatings solve the problems created when the ideal material for use in engineering construction has the wrong surface properties. Parts made from materials with the optimum strength, weight and cost may corrode, seize or gall. Xylan® coatings provide a working surface, tailored to the application. Additionally using xylan coatings allows for reduced breakout torques due to its anti-corrosion and low-friction properties.

Halar Coating Process

Halar ECTFE coating is a melt-processable fluoropolymer with a 1:1 alternating copolymer structure of ethylene and chlorotrifluoroethylene. As part of the fluoropolymer family, Halar® coatings or ECTFE coatings have a unique combination of properties including excellent chemical resistance, good electrical properties, a broad-use temperature range, outstanding abrasion resistance, and excellent impact strength.

Halar / ECTFE Coatings resist a wide variety of corrosive chemicals and organic solvents, including strong acids, chlorine, and aqueous caustics making them ideal for vessels and process equipment for many industries including the petrochemical industry
