About PVD Coatings

• Thin film coatings (few microns)
• Ultra-hard ceramic materials
• Inert Surfaces
• Moderate Temperature process
• Not a pure line-of-sight process
• Extreme adhesion from BryCoat PVD process
• Not just mechanical adhesion as in plating
• Dense, fine grained coatings
• High energy Cathodic Arc process
• Extremely high ionization rate
• Ion acceleration to substrate provides reaction energy
• Environmentally friendly alternative to plating technology.
