Hardness, wear and abrasion resistance are key benefits of Hardide CVD coatings.

Applied by low temperature chemical vapour deposition (CVD), Hardide coatings offer a unique combination of protective and life-extending properties in one coating that can be applied to complex geometries and out-of-sight surfaces.

Hardide coatings are homogeneous and binder-free, providing superior resistance to wear, corrosion, erosion, impact and aggressive chemicals and media.
