ArmorGalv®

ArmorGalv® technology is a US EPA award-winning environmentally friendly process that offers exceptional corrosion, abrasion, and wear resistance, as well as exhibiting anti-galling properties. Following are some features and benefits of the ArmorGalv® technology, which is, in fact, a modern, greatly improved, version of the well-established Sherardizing zinc/iron vapor diffusion process.

ArmorGalv® is not merely a sacrificial coating. It coats and penetrates the surface of any steel part, including wrought and forged steel, castings, powdered metal (with no impregnation required!), and all grades of stainless steel to become integrated with the part.

ArmorGalv® is:

  • Compliant with H2S NACE TM0177 Specification for oil well applications

  • Highly Corrosion (2,000- 5,000hrs NSS) and Abrasion Resistant.

  • Excellent anti-galling properties – a replacement for Cadmium.

  • Controllable and Precise - Thicknesses from 0.00075” to 6 Mils (18 to 150 microns).

  • Hard, Non-Magnetic, Weldable, and Spark-Free.

  • Chip Proof.

  • Amenable to Crimping and Bending.

  • Highly Heat Resistant 12000F (6500C) continuous service.

  • Excellent Base for Paint, Powder Coating and Rubber Bonding

  • Particularly interesting for powder metal parts, requiring no impregnation and providing not only extremely good corrosion protection but also improved mechanical properties.

  • Hydrogen Embrittlement free. Heat-treated parts can safely be coated and protected.

  • Works extremely well in harsh marine environments - enjoys blanket US Navy approval

  • Completely heavy metal-free non-toxic (RoHS/REACH compliant). Recipient of the EPA’s MVP2 award (Most Valuable Pollution Prevention technology).

  • The most specified and approved thermal diffusion process in North America

The unique combination of properties offered by the ArmorGalv® coating makes it an excellent replacement for cadmium and hex chromium. It is also approved by all branches of the US military and has many industrial approvals and applications, from construction in corrosive environments, components on ships, weapon systems, land vehicles, mining, deep-sea oil platforms, agriculture, and more.
