How Engineered Coating Extend Component Lifetime

It is no secret that engineered coatings have many benefits to components, including improving appearance, adhesion, corrosion resistance, hardness and much more. However, in short, the biggest benefit of engineered coating is that it extends the component lifetime. At Curtiss-Wright, we work with a number of industries including aerospace, oil and gas, automotive, medical and general industrial markets, so ensuring components have their fullest life span is very important. Our range of engineered coatings protect against adverse environmental and service conditions, preventing friction, improving lubrication and reducing noise. Our range of industrial engineered coatings include: • Thermal spray – providing thermal management, corrosion and erosion, component protection and repair of turbine components (including high velocity oxy fuel, flame spray, arc and diffusion. • Solid film lubricant and liquid component coatings – long lasting lubrication in harsh operating conditions and to prevent friction and galling (including Everlube, PTFE, zine rich, impingement, Teflon, Primers and more) • Parylene conformal coatings – biocompatible, ultra thin coating used to reduce friction and protect components from the environment, commonly used for medical devices and electronic applications (including Parylene C and Parylene N)
