Wearlon® in Metal Forming Processes

Wearlon® has found tremendous success in the metal forming industry. Wearlon® was recently selected by a world leader in aircraft manufacturing over a multitude of competitive products to replace oil in the manufacturing process. The low surface coefficient of friction of Wearlon® saved this manufacturer the cost of the oil, the cost of applying it, the cost of removing it, and the cost of disposal of the oil as hazardous waste. Also, production increased as the processing time was dramatically reduced.

How can Wearlon® Benefit the Metal Forming Industry?

Die and Tool Coating
By coating stretch form blocks, hammer dies, stretch wraps, hydro presses, and other vehicles for stretching aluminum and other materials, the need for oil is eliminated, saving huge dollars in processing costs and dramatically increasing production.

Plant Maintenance
Anywhere that paint, adhesives, foam, rubber, or any substance sticks, Wearlon® is ideal for dramatically reducing or eliminating clean up and maintenance costs. Areas that previously required extensive down time for cleanup remain in production longer. Also, graffiti will not stick to Wearlon® either in indoor or outdoor applications.

Injection Mold Release
Wearlon® goes on extremely thin allowing exacting tolerances to be met while at the same time providing excellent release properties for injection molding. Also, the powder or pellets that are used will flow faster with Wearlon® lining the containers. Flow rates dramatically increase with Wearlon®.

Icephobic Applications
Wearlon® has such low surface friction that ice will not be able to stay attached. By coating dampers that tend to ice up or any part that may jam in cold weather, or on communication towers or transmitters, you can eliminate icing problems with Wearlon®

Other Uses
Include coating snow plows, printing press parts, ink trays, as a low maintenance wall coating (wipe off or blow to clean). Whatever your needs are, there's a good chance that Wearlon® will provide the solution!

Safe and Easy to Use!!

Wearlon® is water based, environmentally safe and releases absolutely no silicone into the environment. Wearlon® can be applied with conventional sprayers or with brush or roller. Whatever your needs, chances are Wearlon® can work for you.
