Teflon™ Coatings

Peratex offers a range of Teflon™ coatings that can be used on a variety of substrates including stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, steel alloys, brass, and magnesium. Teflon™ coatings spray on like paint and bake to a tough, inert finish.

PTFE

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) based nonstick coatings provide the highest operating temperature of any fluoropolymer (260°C), an extremely low coefficient of friction, good abrasion resistance, and great corrosion protection.

Industries Typically Used For:

Commercial Bakeware
Food Processing
Laundry
Packaging
Automotive
Office Automation

ETFE

ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) coatings provide excellent chemical resistance, outstanding weatherability, and exceptional toughness. These coatings offer a low coefficient of friction, excellent electrical insulation properties, and high resistance to UV radiation, making them ideal for demanding industrial and outdoor applications. ETFE coatings can operate continuously at temperatures up to 150°C while maintaining excellent durability and performance.

Industries Typically Used For:

Industrial Manufacturing

Chemical Processing

Electrical & Electronics

Aerospace

Automotive

Marine

Energy & Power Generation

PFA

PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) nonstick coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. This combined with broad chemical inertness and low permeability makes PFA the gold standard for chemical protection. PFA based coatings are exceptionally heat resistant, allowing for continuous use at up to 260°C. They also allow for greater film thicknesses than many other coating types, and greater toughness than PTFE or FEP. This combination of properties makes PFA an excellent choice for a wide variety of uses, especially those involving chemical resistance.

Industries Typically Used For:

Printing
Chemical Processing
Moulds
Industrial Dryers
Glue pots

FEP

FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer) nonstick coatings melt and flow during baking to provide nonporous films. These Teflon™ coatings excel at release applications and when dealing with sticky products. In addition to excellent nonstick properties, they also provide low friction, and good corrosion and chemical protection. Maximum use temperature is 204°C – 220°C.

Industries Typically Used For:

Food Processing
Chemical Processing
Packaging
Heat sealing equipment
Textiles

Nylon

Nylon is an exceptionally hardwearing coating that looks like powder coating but is actually a high molecular weight thermoplastic polymer, which is melted on. It provides superior abrasion, and wear/impact resistance when compared to typical polyester powder coating.

Nylon can adhere to most substrates including most metals, steel (carbon, stainless, chrome plated, galvanized), aluminium (sheet, bar, or rod, many alloys, foil, anodized or chromate treated), copper, brass, bronze, red brass, and other alloys.

Benefits of Nylon Coating

There are many benefits of Nylon coatings, these include:

Manufactured from renewable resources.
Non-toxic.
Excellent wear characteristics including outstanding abrasion resistance, very high impact resistance, and a low friction coefficient.
Good resistance to weathering.
Good chemical resistance especially to solvents.
Great corrosion resistance.
Great salt spray resistance.
Good thermal insulation, ideal for warm to touch applications.
Maintains flexibility at low temperatures
High vibration absorbing capacity.
Smooth low friction surface, and
Low moisture pickup.

Small Scale Sandblasting

We specialize in sandblasting small components with accuracy and care, stripping away rust, paint, and buildup without damaging the material. Perfect for detailed parts that require a clean surface before coating or refurbishment.

We cater for smaller items like automotive parts, valves, seals, brackets, fittings and food grade components.

Large Scale Sandblasting

Our large-scale sandblasting service is designed for heavy-duty industrial parts and equipment. From Machinery component rollers & conveyor parts, Steel frames & fabricated parts to larger items like tanks, we deliver a thorough, even blast that restores surfaces and prepares them for long-lasting protective coatings.

High Temperature Ovens

We have a range of ovens that we use to cater to different sized jobs that come our way, reaching up to 500°C.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between PTFE, PFA, and FEP?

PTFE is known for its exceptional low-friction properties, PFA offers enhanced durability and the ability to form thicker, more chemically resistant protective coatings, while FEP provides a smooth finish with superior release characteristics. The best choice depends on the specific requirements of the application. All have food grade options available.

Can coatings be applied to stainless steel?

Yes. Many of our coating systems achieve the best adhesion to stainless steel substrates. Our coatings can also be applied to mild steel, aluminium, cast iron, and many other metallic substrates – even lead! Suitability depends on the application and coating selection.

What are the operating temperature ranges of your coatings?

Our coatings are designed for high-performance industrial environments with the following continuous operating temperature capabilities:
PTFE and PFA coatings: up to 260°C
FEP coatings: up to 220°C
ETFE coatings: up to 150°C
Nylon 11 coatings: up to 170°C
These temperature ratings make them suitable for a wide range of demanding applications, from food processing and chemical handling to heavy industrial and engineering environments. The most suitable coating will depend on your specific operating conditions and performance requirements.

Cryogenically Stable

As well as exceptional high temperature stability, most Teflon coatings are cryogenically stable, retaining their chemical and mechanical properties down to -270°C.

What is the coating process?

Our process here at Peratex is designed to ensure strong adhesion and long-term performance. First, components are prepared by pre-baking them at a temperature a little above the final cure temperature for the coating to be applied, usually around 400°C. This is to remove any oils, contaminants, and reactive elements in the substrate, as well as break down any previous coatings. The surface is then abrasive blasted to fully remove old coatings and carbonised residue and create apply the ideal surface profile for coating adhesion.
It is at this stage that worn parts can be reconditioned if necessary, e.g. weld and re-machine a damaged sealing edge on a seal plate.
Once preparation is complete, the coating is applied according to the process unique to each coating, and then cured (baked) to fully bond and harden the finish, ensuring a durable and high-performance result.

Are your Teflon coatings food safe?

Yes. We have food grade options available in almost all coating types.
