CERTESS®NITRO SD PVD Coating

Category: PVD Certess Coating

Description

CERTESS®NITRO SD is a boron doped titanium nitride coating to increase hardness and maximum operating temperature with optimized density to limit columnar growth.

Substrate(s)

  • Aluminum
  • Stainless Steel
  • Steel
  • Titanium

Temp. Ratings

  • Max Temp: 800°C (1472°F)

Thickness

  • Thickness (µ): 1 - 5

Color(s)

  • Gray

Process

CERTESS®NITRO SD 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

Extra High hardness, Excellent abrasive wear resistance, Low thermal conductivity.

  • Abrasion Resistant
  • Adhesion Resistant
