Enthone introduces corrosion resistant coating for brake systems

WEST HAVEN, Connecticut – Enthone introduces its new brake systems specially engineered to deliver unsurpassed corrosion protection on brake calipers, fasteners, cast iron parts, fluid lines and fittings, as well as a diversity of other powertrain and chassis components. Marketed under the Perma SHIELD? 1000 zinc-nickel brand, each system is customized to meet stringent OEM requirements while delivering reliability, versatility and exceptional performance.

Each Perma SHIELD 1000 system creates value throughout the entire supply chain and features the company’s patented ZINCROLYTE^? acid or alkaline zinc-nickel process production that has been proven to extend product life, increase yields and reduce rejects. The process is followed by a PERMA PASS^? passivate and an optional ENSEAL^? sealant. Recommended acid and alkaline systems for specific automotive applications are detailed by visiting http://www.enthone.com/brakes

Perma SHIELD 1000 systems maintain a minimum of 1000 hours resistance to red rust, per Neutral Salt Spray (NSS) testing. The systems may be used in rack or barrel operations, are extremely stable, provide exceptional appearance and are simple to waste treat.

Mr Richard Lynch, industry manager, Automotive Functional Systems said, “The specific automotive component application largely determines the selection of an alkaline or acid based zinc-nickel system. Enthone’s technical application engineers and OEM teams closely collaborate with our OEM and Tier 1 customers to tailor a system that will result in the highest yields and the lowest cost of ownership. ”
