CERTESS®NITRO TC PVD Coating
Category: PVD Certess Coating
Description
CERTESS®NITRO TC is a carbon doped titanium nitride coating to decrease friction with optimized density to limit columnar growth.
Substrate(s)
- Aluminum
- Stainless Steel
- Steel
- Titanium
Thickness
- Thickness (µ): 1 - 5
Color(s)
- Gray
Process
CERTESS®NITRO TC is applied using lateral rotating cathode technology in a PVD (physical vapor deposition) process. Material is vaporized from a solid source in the form of atoms/molecules and then transported in the form of a vapor through a vacuum, low pressure gas/plasma to the substrate where it condenses.
Advantages
High hardness, Excellent abrasive wear resistance, Low thermal conductivity.
- Abrasion Resistant
- Adhesion Resistant
