Cerakote™

Cerakote TM is a new process available from Automation Plus.

Cerakote TM is an advanced, polymer-ceramic composite coating. Applied to metals, plastics, polymers, and wood, it offers a highly durable finish that protects against abrasion, wear, corrosion, and chemicals. It is widely used on firearms, Aerospace components, automotive parts, and sporting goods.

Key Characteristics

  • Exceptional Durability: It outlasts many traditional finishes (like bluing or standard paint) in resisting scratches, dings, and rust.
  • Thin-Film Protection: It is applied in extremely thin layers (typically 0.001 to 0.002 inches), meaning it won’t add bulky weight or interfere with tight-fitting mechanical parts.
  • Customization: Available in over 100 colors.
  • High-Temperature Resistance: Certain specialized formulas can withstand extreme temperatures without degrading.
