Lectrofluor®

Superior chemical and corrosion resistance

Lectrofluor® is a polymer-based coating that prevents severe corrosion and chemical attack to metals in hostile environments. The coating features proprietary blends of engineered polymers and a low coefficient of friction.

Metal parts are first cleaned and prepared in specially designed equipment. The selected polymers are then applied by standard spray methods or electrostatic spraying, depending on the polymers and the part's end use.

Choosing the right polymers

Compatibility with all ferrous and non-ferrous metals other than magnesium.The decision of which polymer to use is based on several factors including:

The end-use application of the part
Its base metal
Hostility of the environment
Coating buildup; tolerance requirements
