HYPERSLIP® Release and Fluoropolymer Coatings
Based primarily on fluorocarbon resins, Alphatek HYPERFLON® and HYPERSLIP® range of coatings provide low friction and corrosion resistance for improved productivity, and non stick, easily cleaned surfaces for greater efficiency and reduced cleaning down time costs.
Production Benefits
Lower grade less expensive substrates offer the design engineer greater flexibility when used in conjunction with our coatings. For example,- in the chemical industry, reaction vessel oyster lids have been conventionally manufactured from Hastalloy C or other exotic materials.
Now they can be fabricated from lower grade mild steel substrates in conjunction with a HYPERFLON® chemically inert corrosion resistant release coating. This process broadens the range of chemicals which can be used and prevents contamination of the product from exposure to the base material.
An additional benefit to our customers is a significant manufacturing cost saving.
KEY benefits
- HYPERSLIP® ensures optimized production efficiency.
- Significant reduction in cleaning-downtime.
- HYPERSLIP® surfaces are environmentally friendly. They eliminate the need to use release agents and/or chemicals (and subsequent disposal of ) which are harmful to our environment.
- Low-friction control for enhanced wear-life
- HYPERSLIP® surfaces offer effective chemical and corrosion protection.
- Ease of cleaning down.
