Nitron MC has a low friction coefficient and is widely used on gears to offer a smooth Graphite based coating that allows smooth meshing of gears, prolonging their life greatly.
Nitron CA Has a high hardness of 2800 – 3000 Hv which allows forming of hard or thick materials. As with all our coatings, it can be used using our Duplex coating which incorporates a Hard Heat treated surface with a coating on top to give added hardness and support. Nitron CA also has a high operating temperature of 1050°C.
