understanding fluoropolymer coatings

Fluoropolymer coatings are derived from fluorocarbon materials, PTFE, PFA, FEP, PEEK, ETFE and ECTFE which offer advanced surface protection. These coatings can provide excellent resistance to chemicals while keeping friction low and help give excellent non-stick performance to coated parts. This will help improve the surface of the base materials like metals, ceramics, and plastics. Applied via liquid dispersion or electrostatic spray, they create a durable shield. This shield performs well in harsh environments, reducing corrosion and improving the release properties of the base material. That makes it ideal for industrial rolls and food processing tools, ensuring stability against heat, chemicals, UV rays, and extreme temperatures, cutting down on wear and corrosion while boosting release properties.

our expertise at Aalberts surface technologies

With over eight decades of hands-on experience, Aalberts surface technologies brings deep engineering and know-how with our top-tier services. We specialize in surface treatments that offer a broad lineup of solutions fine-tuned to the unique demands of both local clients and global industry leaders. From automotive and aerospace to mechanical engineering, our team can craft a custom enhancement that prioritizes durability, reliability, and peak functionality—no matter the sector.

how we do it

Our TempCoat® coatings at Aalberts surface technologies are engineered to lift the performance of all kinds of substrates, proving their worth across diverse industries. These coatings lower friction for smoother movement, enhance release in sticky settings and improve lubricity where metal meets metal. For example, TempCoat® options infused with solid lubricants like PTFE or MoS2 create a lasting, low-friction film that quiets noise and eases wear. Some of these systems are thoroughly vetted and greenlit for food-safe uses or direct contact with the human body, meeting strict safety and regulatory benchmarks.

Beyond the basics, we offer Engineered Hybrid Thermal coatings,  that blend wear resistance with custom textures. By layering in extra features, these solutions fuse non-stick benefits with the superior sliding and durability feature, extending the life of components even under punishing conditions. Our facilities can handle big and small parts—up to 6 meters long at specific sites, allowing us to take on a wide range of projects.

For environments where corrosion is a relentless foe, our MagnaCoat® coatings stand as a formidable defense. Laid down in thick layers—often over 0.040 inch. They’re especially valuable for metals needing extreme protection, with some versions enduring over 504 hours in salt spray tests.

Before application, parts are meticulously prepped with steps like degreasing and sandblasting to ensure the coating will bond to the base material correctly. After the coating process, we finish to OEM specs by grinding, honing, or superfinishing to the exact tolerances the customer needs to accomplish.
