CARBON-X®
CARBON-X®
CARBON-X® – low friction even under tough conditions
CARBON-X® is the low-friction a-C:H based DLC coating from eifeler. Thanks to its high hardness, this coating is the right choice for applications where high abrasive wear occurs and softer low-friction coatings reach their limits. The use of CARBON-X® also efficiently reduces adhesions on tools.
The systematic build-up of layers combines multiple advantages of an a-C:H coating to ensure troublefree
tool performance, even under tough conditions.
In addition, the DLC coating reliably protects gearboxes against adhesive wear, pitting, microcracking, fretting, and material fatigue.
Coating Advantages
- Maximum wear resistance due to high coating hardness
- Low friction coefficients and reduced adhesions
- High tool performance and long service life
