Wear-resistant coating service CERTESS® CARBON

diamond like carbon

CERTESS® CARBON SURFACE TREATMENT FOR TRIBOLOGICAL USE CARBON layers correspond to DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) coatings for tribological use. These coatings usually consist of several sub-layers of different materials: Cr, CrN, WC, WCC, combined with a top layer of hydrogenated (a-C:H) or non-hydrogenated (ta-C) amorphous carbon. Complete global footprint rending mass production service, tribology experts for over 60 years, extensive knowledge of surface engineering, interactions and failure-mechanisms allow us to provide solutions to the most demanding applications. Characteristics: • Hardness from 500 to 6000 HV • Excellent friction properties • No hydrogen embrittlement • Respect of dimensions and roughness Materials suitable for treatment: Steels and cast irons - Carbides • Dense sintered materials • Inconel alloys • Aluminium, copper and titanium alloys Examples of use: • Engine components • Mechanics components • Valves • Camshafts • Tappets • Fork tubes • Gears • Injection systems
