3 Abrasion Resistant Coating Solutions for Lightweight Metal

Lightweight metals are vital for optimal operations in machine manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and several other modern industries. The primary advantage is that they allow manufacturers to reduce weight and maximize cost-efficient performance, resulting in greater performance, efficiency, and sustainable manufacturing. Unfortunately, without an adequate surface solution, lightweight metals exhibit poor resistance to chemical and mechanical wear. Wear-resistant coating allows users to combine the favorable strength-to-weight ratio with enhanced wear resistance. Choosing the solution is essential as the final product can vary significantly in terms of strength, thickness, application technique, and chemical composition. To help kick off your search, we’ve taken...
