Coated rubber parts
Rubber parts tend to stick to each other or to metal parts, causing problems while assembling or causing stick-slip when starting up the application. To avoid both problems, there is RX® SurfaPlus! The most important advantages are the following:
- reducing friction, up to 70% (depending on the type of coating)
- longer life
- no stick-slip
- no sticking of parts
- less force acquired for assembling
- stretch up to 150% possible without damaging the coating
- applicable on all types of rubber
- FDA-approved
- Many colours possible
