IBC Coatings Technologies pleased to announce the addition of two Dry Film Lubricant coatings, Ceratough®-0607 (TiMoS2) and Ceratough®-0608 (CrMoS2)

IBC Coatings Technologies provides high-performance coatings and surface treatments that reduce wear and corrosion of metals. We analyze each customer’s application and develop a tailored solution that will improve the performance of our customer’s products.

IBC Coatings Technologies continues to expand our product offering of high-performance coatings. We are pleased to announce the addition of two Dry Film Lubricant coatings, Ceratough®-0607 (TiMoS2) and Ceratough®-0608 (CrMoS2) both are available now.

These new products have an extremely low coefficient of friction, making them ideal for applications that need extended wear resistance, or have marginal, or no, lubrication options. The coatings are based on Molybdenum Disulfide (a widely used lubricant) applied using a Magnetron Sputtering Physical Vapor Deposition process.
