Endura Coatings

Endura Coatings has been the acknowledged leader in coating application services since 1970. Based in Sterling Heights, Michigan, they operate as a B2B industrial coatings manufacturer serving aerospace, automotive, chemical processing, medical devices, pharmaceutical manufacturing, food processing equipment, and dozens of other industries.

Their core value proposition: permanent performance coating solutions for wear, friction, corrosion, and sticking problems that plague industrial tooling and components.

Endura's catalog spans 11 distinct coating technology platforms:

• •Series 100: Ceramic composite coatings up to 65Rc hardness with wear and corrosion resistance
• •Series 500: Hard chromium plating for extreme wear environments and extended component life
• •Series 600: PVD/CVD ultra-hard thin film coatings up to 4,000 Vickers hardness for abrasion resistance
• •Series 700: Liquid ceramic coatings with complex ceramic particles, excellent adhesion and solvent resistance
• •Series 900: Thermal spray coatings combining wear resistance with superior release properties

• •Series 200: Electroless nickel plating (45Rc to 80Rc hardness) with permanent lubricity and extremely low surface energies
• •Series 1000: Polymer infused composite diamond coating—their patented process combining sub-micron diamond particulates with electroless nickel matrix and self-lubricating fluoropolymers
• •Series 1100: Composite diamond coatings via proprietary plating process that offers diamond properties at a fraction of the cost

• •Series 300: Fluoropolymer coatings engineered for unrivaled release (non-stick), corrosion/chemical resistance, and low friction with optional dielectric strength or conductivity
• •Series 400: Solid/dry film lubricant coatings that replace traditional oils and anti-seizing agents with permanent dry lubricated surfaces—even at high operating temperatures

Infused Matrix™ Coatings

Endura's proprietary Infused Matrix™ technology combines special, unique surface treatments using state-of-the-art equipment and materials. The key: coatings form integral bonds with base metal substrates and do not chip, crack, flake, or peel. These aren't surface finishes that wear away—they're engineered to become part of the metal.

Endura coatings can be engineered to provide:

• •Barriers to corrosion and chemical attack
• •Dielectric strength or electrical conductivity
• •Heat resistance up to 750°F (nominally 550°F–750°F curing)
• •Higher release properties (non-stick surfaces)
• •Hydrophobic or hydrophilic surface properties
• •Increased hardness (up to 65Rc–80Rc depending on system)
• •Lower friction and reduced coefficient of friction
• •Permanent lubricity without oils or greases
• •Resistance to abrasion and galling/wear
• •Dimensional precision maintenance
• •Textured surface options
• •Military/aerospace mil-spec compliance
• •FDA/USDA compliance for food contact applications

Endura works with customers to determine the exact coating chemistry needed for specific applications. They accept project requirements through their online Coating Requirement Questionnaire, which asks about:

• •Specific problems to solve (wear, corrosion, friction, sticking, hardness, FDA compliance, etc.)
• •Part dimensions, alloy materials, and annual quantities
• •Processing restrictions and operating temperature ranges
• •Industry and application type

Applications engineers respond within one business day with recommendations and can discuss custom solutions for unique requirements.

ISO Certified operations ensure quality and consistency across all coating applications.
