Xylan / PTFE coating

  Xylan Coated Valve Ring

 We address all facts of the coating application with our goal- to provide the highest quality coated product and maintain control of the entire process.

We combine these two qualities for an unusually strong presence in the market. We have privilege of being FIRST Indian company which is been awarded Whitford’s “Quality Approved Coater” certification for Xylan/PTFE coating.

What is Xylan Coating ?

Xylan is the largest, most complete line of fluoropolymer coatings in the worlds. Xylan coatings have a broad range of properties, which make them ideal for an infinite variety of applications. Xylan/PTFE coating on Bolts, Studs & Nuts is an ideal protestion in corrosive environments, salt water condition & specially for splash zone. Xylan coatings differ from traditional fluoropolymer coatings in one very important aspect: they are composite materials. Lubricants with the lowest-known coefficient of friction are combined with the newest high-temperature-resistant organic polymers.

Whitford’s “Quality Approved Coater” for Xylan / PTFE Coating.

Together, they from “Plastic alloys” with unique properties:
• Low coefficient of friction : as low as 0.02.
• Superb wear resistance: even under extreme pressure.
• Outstanding corrosion and chemical resistance: in most environments.
• Wide operating-temperature ranges : from–195⁰C to + 285⁰C (-385F to + 545⁰F)
• Flexible curing schedule; ambient to 425C ( 800⁰F).
• Wide colour range : to Colour-code products.
• Pliability : Xylan coatings bend freely and repeatedly without breaking.
• Machineability : apply multiple coats of Xylan (most formulations) and mill.
• Excellent adhesion: to most metals, plastics, ceramics, wood, even to itself.

GENERAL INFORMATION:

This fluorocarbon based finish, which is normally applied in a single coat, exhibits the following properties :
  • Exceptional hardness at elevated temperature.
  • Outstanding abrasion/Wear resistance.
  • Excellent adhesion to most substrates.
  • Easy application techniques.
  • Good chemical resistance against a range of chemicals.
  • Excellent weather resistance.

XYLAN / PTFE COATING FOR FASTENERS :

Xylan coatings, particularly the formulation made with PTFE, offer a simple solution to the problem. Xylan is an
excellent corrosion barrier, even if applied in a thin film. Most formulations form functional films at about 25 microns. In ASTM – B – 117 salt spray test, Xylan/PTFE coating along with suitable pre-treatment of Zinc or Cadmium provides a minimum 100 hrs. & maximum upto 4000 hrs. protection.

This coating combat the severe corrosion that affect the massive studs & nuts on oil drilling rigs & petrochemicals processing equipments, as well as other items associated with the chemical processing industry. These coatings also permit the use of less expensive & stronger metal in place of stainless steel & other more exotic and costly materials.
Xylan’s versatility is best demonstrated as a coating for stud bolts and nuts, where it provides unparalleled performance in ease of installation, resistance to corrosion and ease of removal
