Industrial Non-Stick Coatings Applicators
Anti-Stick Coatings for Metal
The superior properties of non-stick fluoropolymer coatings make them popular for an endless variety of industrial uses, from mold release agents to food grade nonstick applications including industrial food processing equipment. Metal Coatings Corp. specializes in the industrial non-stick coating process and uses two types of non-stick material:
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), the first of the modern non-stick fluoropolymer coatings, was introduced in 1938 and is still among the world’s most popular nonstick products. Applied in one coat, PTFE offers the highest operating temperature of any fluoropolymer at 500°F.
FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) has similar properties to PTFE, while offering superior release properties for non-stick applications. With an operating temperature of 450 F, this coating is commonly used as a non-stick coating for molds.
Non-Stick Coating Physical and Electrical Properties
- Low coefficient of friction- in the range of 0.05 to 0.10
- Nonwetting- oleophobic and hydrophobic surfaces make cleanup easier
- Unique electrical properties- high dielectric strength, low dissipation factor and very high surface resistivity.
- Cryogenic stability- usable at temperatures as low as -270° C / -454° F
- Chemical resistance- resistant to virtually all chemicals except molten alkali metals and highly reactive fluorinating agents.
- Heat resistance- up to 500° F with adequate ventilation.
Metal Coatings Corp. maintains a huge stock of coated B7 studs, threaded bar and 2H nuts. Available for same-day shipping in a wide variety of sizes, each is expertly coated with the proprietary FluoroKote #1® fluoropolymer coating process that offers easier assembly, fights corrosion and prevents seizing and galling.
