Applying PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coatings to spanner wrenches can significantly enhance their performance, durability, and resistance to wear and corrosion. PVD coatings can improve the hardness, lubricity, and overall lifespan of spanner wrenches, making them more effective tools for various applications.
Here are some common PVD coating types that are suitable for spanner wrenches:
Titanium Nitride (TiN):
TiN coating is known for its gold color and excellent wear resistance.
Typically applied at thicknesses of 1-4 microns, TiN can enhance the hardness of spanner wrenches and reduce friction during use.
Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN):
TiCN coating provides higher hardness and oxidation resistance compared to TiN.
With a thickness range of 1-5 microns, TiCN can improve the wear resistance and durability of spanner wrenches.
Titanium Aluminum Nitride (TiAlN):
TiAlN coating offers superior hardness, wear resistance, and high-temperature performance.
Applied in thicknesses of 2-6 microns, TiAlN can significantly extend the lifespan of spanner wrenches under challenging operating conditions.
Chromium Nitride (CrN):
CrN coating provides good wear resistance, low friction, and corrosion protection.
Typically applied at thicknesses of 1-4 microns, CrN can enhance the durability and performance of spanner wrenches.
Diamond-like Carbon (DLC):
DLC coatings offer a combination of high hardness, low friction, and excellent wear resistance.
DLC coatings can be applied in various thicknesses depending on the specific requirements of the application, providing long-lasting protection to spanner wrenches.
Before selecting a PVD coating for spanner wrenches, it is important to consider the specific application requirements, operating conditions, and desired properties such as hardness, lubricity, and corrosion resistance. Consulting us today for more specifications.
