New Coating Increases Cleanability and Durability of Aluminum Parts
TUFRAM
641 is a new coating developed by General Magnaplate to increase the
cleanability of aluminum parts while also creating a steel-hard surface
that increases durability and protects against corrosion.
The
release properties provided by TUFRAM 641 ensure that substances can be
easily removed from aluminum parts without the need for corrosive and
damaging cleaning solvents. Ink can be easily wiped off rollers and
ink pans, biological materials can be easily cleaned from clinical
diagnostic equipment, and sticky foodstuffs removed from dairy mixers
and food processing equipment.
In the case of the clinical and
medical industry, TUFRAM 641`s properties also protect diagnostic
equipment from high and low pH reagents that can stain and corrode
aluminum parts. TUFRAM 641 meets all USDA, FDA, NSF and AgriCanada
codes.
According to General Magnaplate, the need for less
cleaning time, the reduced requirement for corrosive cleaning solvents,
and the increased hardness of the part`s surface all combine to
increase the lifespan of aluminum parts and increase production
efficiency.
