ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú FAQs
Yes. ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú offers PFAS-free zinc-flake fastener coating systems and was the first zinc-flake formulator to develop fully PFAS-free solutions. ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú 556 and 557 are PFAS-free and available as one, two-, and multi-coat systems, with basecoat and topcoat combinations offered in silver, black, and various colors to meet global OEM requirements. ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú 556E has been EU-approved since 2017, and ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú’s PFAS-free topcoat has been in use since 2013 on millions of vehicles and billions of fasteners worldwide.
ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coatings are evaluated using industry-standard corrosion testing methods, including neutral salt spray and cyclic corrosion testing. Testing is conducted to meet OEM and industry requirements, with results used to validate performance for specific applications and environments. Despite being typically about a quarter of the thickness of a human hair, ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú’s combination of inorganic resin basecoats and organic resin topcoats delivers superior cyclic (real-world) corrosion resistance.
Yes. ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coatings are formulated to achieve specific coefficient of friction ranges to meet OEM and application-specific requirements worldwide. By adjusting coating systems and topcoat options, ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú delivers targeted friction performance while maintaining corrosion resistance and overall coating durability. Our unique topcoat chemistry enables consistent torque-tension performance across all major industrial substrates.
ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú’s roots as an applicator shape how we design and manufacture our coatings, with real-world application requirements always in mind. Our globally integrated model, which includes designing and manufacturing many raw materials and all coatings in-house for our wholly owned applicators and 280 licensees, ensures consistent performance, quality, and supply continuity. This vertical integration enables superior performance using fewer coating layers, resulting in higher application efficiency, improved dimensional quality, lower cost, and reduced energy use, with up to 33% less COâ‚‚ per part.
ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coating systems provide robust corrosion protection for both interior and exterior surfaces of structural chassis components. Unlike barrier coatings that rely solely on an intact film, ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú’s zinc-rich systems provide sacrificial protection, meaning the steel remains protected even if the coating is damaged by abrasion or road debris. Because ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coatings are applied after forming and welding, they also protect weld heat-affected zones and provide coverage on interior and complex surfaces that are difficult to protect with traditional metallic coatings. Beyond corrosion protection, ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coatings give engineers greater design flexibility. Without the constraints of pre-galvanized materials, components can be optimized for stiffness, durability, and reduced mass using a wider range of steel gauges and forming methods. ÁñÁ«appµ¼º½Èë¿Ú coating systems are widely used on structural and fastening components across multiple industries and are currently in production globally.
