SLIPLUX™
liquid coatingsOVERVIEW
The low-friction liquid coating solution
Some products require a surface that can slide or slip effortlessly. The purpose is mostly to reduce wear or heat caused by friction. It can reduce squeaks and rattles. No matter what the end goal is, a low coefficient of friction coating is required.
SLIPLUX™ is a proprietary liquid coating solution that exhibits an extremely low coefficient of friction while maintaining hardness for a durable finish.
The unique SLIPLUX™ low-friction exhibits dry-lubricating properties which allow interlocking or meshing products.The increased toughness of SLIPLUX™ is also formulated for an extremely durable and chip-resistant finish.
MAIN FEATURES
- Lowest coefficient of friction of any liquid coating.
- Good abrasion resistance
- Chemical and heat resistance
- Significant friction and wear reduction, mitigating the need for conventional lubricants or replacement.
- Flexible application for indoor or outdoor use.
