BALINIT® DLC
Finest diamond-like carbon
Coating Properties
Coating Material a-C:H
Microhardness* (HV 0.05) > 2,000
Friction coefficient* against steel (dry) 0.1 - 0.2
Max. service temperature (°C) 350
Coating colour black

* depends on application and test conditions
BALINIT® DLC is suitable for the most extreme wear conditions and high relative speeds, even when running dry. The coating gives excellent protection against abrasion, tribo-oxidation and adhesion (scuffing). The coating permits surface pressures that, under normal conditions, would lead at once to scuffing and cold welding. Friction losses are reduced to a minimum. The good corrosion resistance protects the substrate from destructive attack. BALINIT® DLC is foodstuff-neutral.
Recommended applications:
•  Engine components
(fuel injection systems, valve trains, pistons, etc.)
•  Sliding and rolling components (bearing shells, rollers)
•  Pumps and compressors
(pistons, cylinders, valves, shaft feed-throughs, etc.)
•  Textile machines
•  Medical technology
•  Lubricant-free systems
