Teflon Coated Cast-In Platen Heaters

Various types of plating and coatings can be added to Durex platen heaters to increase the hardness of the working surface or comply with specifications required for the application. Teflon® coating can be applied for lower temperature applications that require wear resistance or chemical resistance. Electroless Nickel plating can be applied to add a durable finish for higher temperature applications. Anodised finishes can also be provided for increased hardness and improved surface quality. As with all engineered products, coatings must be selected carefully based on the individual application. Factors such as maximum operating temperature, handling of the working surface, and secondary cleaning operations must be considered before specifying a particular coating or process.
