| A
proprietary coating system that surpasses all
other current methods of magnesium treatment.
Further enhancement of this coating is achieved
by use of supplementary polymers or dry film
lubricants.
Rc 58 - 60 for heavy coatings. Thinner
coatings can be as low as Rc 35. Additional dry
films can be applied for special longer wear
characteristics or to prevent outgassing.
Properties Coefficient Of Friction: as coated
0.12 to 0.15. With supplementary surface
coatings of dry film lubricants or polymers, COF
can be as low as 0.04.
Operating temperature range: -100° to +550°
F.
Resistance to salt spray per ASTM B-117, up
to 75 hours, as coated. With supplementary
treatment, 300 hours. With some grades of
polymer, over 1,000 hours salt spray resistance
is obtainable.
Meets the requirements of Mil-M-45202 and
AMS-2476. Surface growth is up to 70% of total
thickness, depending on type and class.
Most magnesium alloys react favorably to the
MAGNADIZE process. Controlled coating
thicknesses range from 0.0002 to 0.0030",
providing various degrees of wear resistance,
lubricity, corrosion resistance and friction
requirements not only for the specific
application, but for the specific magnesium
alloy used.
Typical Applications:
- Frames
- housings
- gearboxes
- wheels
- Compressor components
- Gear splines
- Sliding vanes
- Air operated tools
- Castings
and any lightweight, low inertia-required
components.
