Surface Coatings for Food Processing

Hardide is in successful commercial use in food applications.

One of the world's largest food and beverage brands was having repeated failures with a Hard Chrome coating that was puncturing and flaking under abrasive conditions causing the galling of critical ball valves and seats.

After being coated with Hardide, the life of the parts was increased in excess of 20-fold.

Hardide has FDA (Food and Drug Administration) approval.

• Valves
• Stems
• Actuators
• Screws/Augers/Stirrers
• Dies
