A chrome-free, bimetallic corrosion protection coating system that combines inorganic basecoat with organic topcoat for barrier protection has been developed by Erico.
The Caddy Armour coating system, which self-heals, is UL-recognised and RoHS-compliant and offers an aesthetically pleasing appearance for fasteners and other steel components.
Utilising a state-of-the-art, computer-controlled process, the coating is applied consistently to each part, enabling up to 10 times greater corrosion resistance performance. Corrosion resistance is proven through the ASTM B117/DIN 50021 salt spray and GM 9540P accelerated cyclic corrosion tests.
