THE PRODUCT
Cerakote, the gist…
Cerakote is a type of ceramic-based industrial coating known for its durability, versatility, and protective properties. Originally developed for use in the firearms industry, Cerakote has gained popularity in various other applications, including automotive, aerospace, sporting goods, consumer electronics, interior design, 3D printing and more, due to its ability to provide a high end look, tough and corrosion-resistant finish.
Key Features Include:
01.
Durability
One of Cerakote’s primary advantages is its exceptional durability. It provides unrivalled resistance to wear, corrosion, chemicals, and abrasion especially compared to its competitors. This makes it suitable for protecting a huge variety of projects.
02.
Customisation
Cerakote is available in a wide range of colours (120+), allowing for customisation of the coated items. We are able to use multiple colours and stencils to further personalise your project, or avoid the need for logo stickers. Check out our Cerakote colours page for examples.
03.
Thickness
Cerakote coatings are thin, typically measuring around 1 to 2 MIL (25 to 50 microns) in thickness. This allows for precise and even application without adding significant bulk or weight to the coated item. This is a gigantic positive for its application over Powder coating
04.
Temperature Resistance
Cerakote coatings are designed to withstand high temperatures, with their C and V series rated to over 1000 degrees celsius. This makes it suitable for use on parts that experience extreme heat and friction, such as exhaust systems and engine components.
05.
Composition
Cerakote is a thin-film ceramic coating that is typically applied to metal surfaces, although it can also be used on other materials like plastics, polymers, and even some composites. It is made up of a mixture of ceramic particles suspended in a liquid polymer solution.
06.
Maintenance
Cerakote-coated items are relatively easy to maintain. They can be cleaned with standard cleaning agents and do not require special care or attention.
