Triboslide^®

This process combines a super-finish and metal-based plate powder spray with dry lubrication properties. It improves the substrate properties:

• surface state: reduces the Ra
• hardness: improves the hardness of the substrate
• wettability: increases the wettability of hydraulic fluids
• reduces the friction coefficient up to 0,03 dynamic (WS2/WS2)
• reduces wear in treated parts
• anti-corrosion: offers an anti-corrosion barrier to all oxydisable metals

General features

• Cold application, which prevents geometric and mechanical deformation in the part
• Does not need firing or polymerisation
• Constant thickness of 1µm (+/- 0,5)
• Can be applied to finished and pre-treated parts
• Co excess thickness on angles
• Competitive process
• Chemically stable covering
• Resistant to pressure

This coating is environmentally-friendly and is perceived as an alternative to hard-chromium.
