The Aerospace Industry demands specialist coatings, complicated masking techniques, resistance to aggressive environments and tight tolerances. Our prototype and specials department often develops coating solutions, examples being an elastomeric coating that enables a steel component to be ultrasonically welded to a high-tech fabric for an airbag and an impact resistant polyurethane rubber coating which is transparent to radar, for aircraft nose cones. We also apply Infra Red Reflective (IRR) coatings.

Much of our work in this area is coated in Nylon because of its inherent abrasion and impact resistance.

Automotive applications include chassis for off-road vehicles, our Nylon-LF (IMDS registered) coating that was developed specifically to solve the problem of squeaks and rattles from door latches, and wear resistant coatings on clutch release forks .

Nylon Powder Coatings

Although initially more expensive than polyester coatings, Nylon has superior wear, abrasion, and impact resistance. Any extra cost is recovered many times over by savings in maintenance and replacement costs. Coating with Nylon is a major part of our day to day business. We are an approved applicator of Rilsan, and have built up a considerable expertise with this product.

Key benefits of Nylon are:

• Manufactured from renewable resources
• Non toxic
• Excellent wear characteristics
• Good chemical resistance especially to solvents
• Good corrosion resistance
• Good thermal insulation, ideal for warm to touch applications
• Flexibility at low temperatures
• Smooth low friction surface
• Certified colour formulations for all standard colours in our spectrophotometer or we can match accurately to any colour sample. RAL, BS, Pantone, NCS and Munsell charts available
