​​MICRO FINISH COATING & APPLICATIONS

Micro finish Coating forms a tenacious bond to the basis metal. It therefore forms an unbreakable bond allowing the Micro finish coated surface to be an excellent anti-stick application having an extremely low coefficient of friction benefit.

Coefficient of Friction – Range is as low as 0.09 to 0.08 pm Micro finish Coated surface. 0.08 Mirror Finish Polishing achieves maximum glass optical surface range .3 to .5 RMS Micro finish. There is no need for re-polishing a Micro finish coated surface.

Rockwell Hardness – Can be as low as 68 RC on S/S 316 &303. 304 grade coating can range 72 RC to 84 RC Harden Steel. Micro finished punches and dies achieve a Rockwell rating better than 82 RC.

Corrosion Resistance– Micro finishing provides corrosion resistance against organic acids, solutions, fluxes, acetone, thinners, salts and detergents. However, not against muriatic acids and hydrochloric acids.

Benefits when using Micro finish coating surface.

Eliminate problems of chipping, peeling, flaking, picking, sticking, corrosion, erosion, and abrasion problems.
Protects against chemicals, acids and corrosive agents.
Improves sanitary conditions on food and drug processing equipment.
Coating distribution is uniform over all surfaces (regardless of contour or shape and thickness).
No chipping or flaking problems

Micro finish coating is FDA compliant
