The Coatings
Type Rc Descriptions
XC1000 68-70 A composition of Cobalt saturated with 80-90% Sub-Micron sized Tungsten Carbide with a particulate
hardness average of Rc 82, providing ultimate abrasion resistance.
XC2000 70-74 An Oxide of Chromium combined with an Oxide of Silicon providing extreme abrasion resistance and hardness.
XC3000 65 An Oxide of Aluminum producing very hard, dense, and smooth coatings. Resists very fine particulate
abrasion. Corrosion resistant.
XC4000 55-65 A composition of Nickel, Chromium, and Chromium Carbide producing an
abrasion resistant. Coating with extreme corrosion resistance and excellent ductility, relative to hardness.
XC5000 60 A proprietary composition of Molybdenum and Tungsten Carbide producing unique antigalling
and abrasion resistance.
XC6000 55-60 A Nickel-Chrome-Boron alloy system combined with 50-60% Tungsten Carbide
providing extreme abrasion and corrosion resistance.
XC7000 60 A Nickel-Chrome-Boron alloy system similar to
"56" only much more abrasion resistant.
XC8000 58 A Cobalt base alloy system similar to Stellite 12, only much more abrasion resistant.
XC-RD 75-80 Tungsten Carbide / Cobalt; A Unique sub-micron manufacturing process providing improved wear
resistance over the traditional Wc/Co coating.
