Ceramic Coating
Depending on the
formulation, ceramic can withstand from
600 to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. Exhaust
pipes, manifolds and headers become hot,
and the choices for coating are limited.
Ceramic coatings withstand the extensive
heat generated by these parts and can
lower the temperature of the part. Most
ceramic coatings are also smooth and
reduce friction when used on engine
parts such as pistons. By lowering
operating temperature, it is possible to
increase the amount of oxygen available
to the engine, which can lead to
increased performance.
Clean parts is key to
proper coating finish. All parts need to
be free of grease, bearings, wheel
weights, bolts and seals from parts.
This needs to be done before we receive
the parts to be powder coated. All parts
are media blasted with aluminum oxide to
provide a better adhesion to the parts.
Our oven can accommodate
up to a 4x6x8 part.
