Tribobond™ 31 Cr2N

Low stress wear resistant coating with smooth surface

Sub-stoichiometric Tribobond^™ 31 Cr2N  features  lower  residual  stress  than  many  other  coatings from the Tribobond^™ portfolio,  including CrN. Since the coating is produced by sputtering it generally features lower roughness than cathodic arc coatings. Crystalline structure of this coating allows for excellent polishing properties. Tribobond^™ 31 Cr2N  also exhibits lower surface energy, making this coating more hydrophobic.

In general, Tribobond^™ 31 Cr2N protects against abrasive and adhesive wear, impact fatigue, oxidation and fretting.
