Frictional Coatings

NiPLATE™ 777 furnishes a highly frictional surface by embedding a high density of silicon carbide particles within a hard electroless nickel matrix. The specially selected silicon carbide particles are of a size and shape to yield such a frictional surface. The coating is also highly durable as silicon carbide has a hardness of 4,500 Vickers.

Surface Technology, Inc. has utilized its knowledge of the composite electroless nickel – silicon carbide technology in NiPLATE™ 700 to produce the NiPLATE™ 777 product. The essential difference is that whereas NiPLATE™ 700 is smooth, NiPLATE™ 777 has a controlled frictional surface. NiPLATE™ 777 also embodies numerous benefits including:

Exceptional hardness
Corrosion resistance
Perfect conformity to complex geometries
Wear, abrasion, and impact resistance
Applicability to many common metals and alloys
Coverage of entire services or selected critical areas

These features allow increased lifetime and minimize maintenance-related downtime from replacement of high wear parts. In addition, any process parts enhanced by NiPLATE™ 777 will produce more consistent product over an extended period of time. The NiPLATE™ 777 coating has proven to be advantageous in countless industries including molding, paper, tool and die, plastics, petrochemical, and automotive.

NiPLATE™ 777 has received a positive review from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Department of Health and Human Services. Click here for details.
