AEGIS Coating Systems
Engineered industrial coatings for the three failure modes that take equipment out of service. Sticking. Corrosion. Wear. Applied in our facility or on your equipment in place, using patent pending precision energy surface preparation and patent pending precision magnetic heat activation.
Three problem pillars, one engineered platform
Sticking & buildup
Pressure sensitive adhesives, residue, and process material accumulating on rollers, sealing jaws, converting tooling, and food contact surfaces. AEGIS extreme release and low friction systems prevent buildup before it forces unscheduled cleandowns.
Best for: Flexible packaging rollers, converting and laminating tooling, food and beverage equipment, sealing jaws.
Corrosion
H2S, chlorides, caustics, sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, ammonia, marine salt air, and aggressive cleaning chemistries attacking metal substrates. AEGIS corrosion prevention systems deliver chemical bond surface preparation and engineered cure so coatings actually stick and stay put. Field service available for structural assets too large to ship.
Best for: Bolts and fasteners, pumps and impellers, structural steel, process vessels, marine and chemical service hardware.
Wear & abrasion
Doctor blades, scrapers, slurry handling, and high abrasion industrial surfaces wearing through and shortening service intervals. AEGIS extreme wear systems can embed our fluoropolymer in a tungsten carbide matrix to add extreme wear protection without slowing your operation.
Best for: Doctor blades, transport rollers, slurry pumps, mining and minerals processing equipment, conveyor surfaces.
Engineered for the wear environment
For assets where abrasion is the limiting factor, AEGIS can embed our fluoropolymer system in a tungsten carbide matrix. The result is a single coating that handles chemical attack, release, and aggressive wear in one pass. Doctor blades, slurry rollers, scraper systems, and conveyor surfaces stay in service longer between rebuilds, and the wear pattern stays predictable so maintenance windows do not get hijacked by surprise failures.
Two technologies most applicators cannot match
Most coatings fail at the bond line, especially when you try to get fluoropolymers to stick to metal. AEGIS solves that problem with two proprietary processes, each protected under active patent prosecution.
01. Precision energy surface preparation
Conventional grit blasting contaminates the surface with aluminum oxide, degrades the substrate, and misses pockets and complex geometries. AEGIS uses a precision energy process that vaporizes contaminants, corona treats the metal for a superior chemical bond, and reaches every pocket and curve. No hazardous waste.
02. Precision magnetic heat activation
High performance coatings require heat activation at 350 to 750°F. Convection ovens heat the whole component and require full disassembly and shipping. AEGIS precision magnetic heat activation heats only the skin of the part, preserves substrate integrity, and can be deployed in our facility or on your equipment in place.
Coating systems we run
AEGIS applies a range of engineered systems matched to substrate, service environment, and failure mode. We do not lock you into a single chemistry. We pick the system that fits the asset.
Fluoropolymer systems (PTFE, FEP, PFA)
The release and non stick workhorses. Service temperatures from ambient to 500°F continuous depending on grade, FDA compliant grades available, full chemical resistance across most industrial process streams.
Extreme release systems
Engineered fluoropolymer release with optional wear resistant overlays for adhesive heavy environments. Holds up under high contact pressure and continuous web speeds.
Tungsten carbide reinforced systems
For the brutally abrasive environments. We embed AEGIS fluoropolymer in a tungsten carbide matrix for extreme wear protection while preserving release and non stick performance.
Conductive systems
Carbon reinforced AEGIS PTFE for static dissipation on flexible packaging, converting, and solvent process surfaces. Low friction, high release, with controlled surface resistivity.
How an AEGIS engagement works
- Coating review. You send us the asset details (substrate, service environment, failure mode, geometry). We spec a system within one business day, quote within three.
- Surface prep. Precision energy surface preparation in our facility, or onsite using our mobile rigs. Eliminates the grit blast contamination problem at the root.
- Coating application. Engineered system applied to spec by AEGIS technicians, in shop or on your line.
- Heat activation. Precision magnetic heat activation cures the coating to its rated bond strength. Skin only heating means no substrate distortion.
- Finishing and verification. Surface finish brought to spec, coating thickness and hardness verified before parts ship or before we leave the site.
Frequently asked
Can AEGIS coat parts in place, without removing them from service?
Yes. AEGIS precision magnetic heat activation is a patent pending cure technology that supports both facility and field application. We bring the surface prep and the cure to the asset. No teardown, no shipping, no full plant shutdown required for many applications.
What substrates can AEGIS coat?
Carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, cast iron, brass, copper, and many specialty alloys. We can also coat over existing rubber and composite roll covers where appropriate. Glass and certain plastics on request.
What service temperatures can AEGIS coatings handle?
Continuous service from cryogenic to 500°F depending on system. Excursion temperatures up to 700°F for PFA grade systems. Tell us your peak and continuous operating temperatures and we will spec accordingly.
How fast can AEGIS turn around a coating job?
Engineering spec within one business day. Quote within three. Typical in shop turnaround is two to four weeks depending on scope. Onsite work scheduled to your maintenance window.
Are AEGIS coatings food contact compliant?
Yes, on the systems where it applies. We run FDA compliant PTFE, FEP, and PFA grades for food and beverage process equipment, including sealing jaws, transport rollers, and processing surfaces.
Send us your asset details
If you can tell us the substrate, the service environment, and what is failing, we can spec a coating system for it. One business day engineering response. Three day quote.
