    Coating of silicone or graphite onto stainless steel surface

    For SiC coatings on SS substrates, try Precision Seal of Spring Lake, MI (www.precisionseal.com). Aluminum substrates are a bit trickier. Hope this helps.

    Coating of silicone or graphite onto stainless steel surface

    Your questions warrants a clarification: I believe the initial thread was meant to ask for "coating of silicon_ (carbide or SiC) or graphite onto stainless steel surface)... I am not aware of a method to electroplate rubber compounds. Electroplating requires conductivity; this is given in...

    Coating of silicone or graphite onto stainless steel surface

    Due to the nature of this plating, surface roughness varies with varying plating thickness (which is controlled via length of time in bath). An approximate Ra value is 100. Depending on the application, the surface must be ground. For further details, please view...

    Coating of silicone or graphite onto stainless steel surface

    I apologize for any confusion that I may have caused, but I misspoke. We can deposit either silicon CARBIDE or graphite or any other secondary particles such as teflon, silicon nitride, aluminum oxide, or PEEK resin in the Composite Electro Coat. The initial development of this product was to...

    Coating of silicone or graphite onto stainless steel surface

    We have developed an electrolytic process which allows silicon graphite to be coated upon secondary substrates. We utilize this process for manufacture of sealing components on mechanical seals, where a pure silicon graphite seal is too expensive to use. If you need more info, please let me...

    Changing tyre pressures while in motion

    The hummer's drivetrain is not on center of the axle, which allows for a rotary coupling to be inserted on the centerline of the wheel. Our company manufactures rotary couplings used for tire inflation systems, we have a patent on one coupling. There are other systems on the market, such as...
