What Is Xylan Coating?

Xylan® is a brand of high-performance fluoropolymer coatings developed by Whitford (now part of PPG). These coatings are engineered to improve the functional properties of metal components by reducing friction, resisting corrosion, and withstanding elevated temperatures.

Unlike general-purpose coatings, industrial xylan coatings are formulated for precision applications where performance under stress is non-negotiable. Xylan is part of PCTM’s broader PTFE and fluoropolymer coating capabilities.

Key Benefits of Xylan Industrial Coatings

Xylan coatings are selected by engineers and procurement teams because they solve specific performance problems.

Low coefficient of friction (COF): Reduces wear between moving parts and extends service life.
Corrosion resistant: Xylan corrosion-resistant coating formulations pass rigorous salt spray testing, protecting parts in wet, chemical, or marine environments.
High-temperature resistance: Certain Xylan series tolerate continuous service temperatures up to 550°F (288°C) or higher.
Non-stick properties: Beneficial for food processing, chemical handling, and mold-release applications.
Chemical resistance: Protects fasteners and components exposed to solvents, fuels, and industrial fluids.
Thin-film application: Xylan delivers high performance without adding significant thickness or weight to precision parts.

The right coating keeps your production moving, reduces unplanned maintenance, and gives your components a longer, more reliable service life. If you are evaluating whether Xylan is the right specification for your application, our team can help you work through the details before you commit.

Our Xylan Coating Services Capabilities

We apply multiple Xylan series to match your specific application requirements. Every project begins with proper surface preparation, including sandblasting or phosphate pretreatment, to ensure adhesion and long-term coating integrity.

Xylan Series Overview

Xylan Series	Best For	Key Properties
Xylan 1010	General industrial use	Low friction, corrosion resistant
Xylan 1014	Fasteners, hardware	Enhanced corrosion protection, salt spray resistance
Xylan 1424	High-load applications	Wear resistance, film durability
Xylan 8840	Food contact surfaces	FDA-compliant, non-stick, easy clean

Note: Series availability is subject to project specifications. Contact us to confirm the right Xylan formulation for your parts.

Our Professional Coating Process

Your components move through a carefully structured, quality-controlled process at every stage:

1. Surface Preparation

Sandblasting, phosphate, or chemical pretreatment is selected based on your substrate to ensure the surface is clean, profiled, and ready for adhesion.

2. Primer Application

Where the part geometry or substrate requires it, a primer coat is applied to maximize bonding and long-term coating durability.

3. Xylan Topcoat Application

The Xylan coating is applied via spray or liquid process, depending on the part and the series specified for your application.

4. Curing

Parts move through temperature-controlled ovens where the coating fully crosslinks, achieving the hardness, adhesion, and chemical resistance your specifications require.

5. Quality Inspection

Every job is inspected before it ships. Your parts leave our facility meeting the standards your application demands.

Skipping or rushing any one of them is where coating failures begin. When you work with PCTM, you get a process built around getting it right the first time, because you shouldn’t have to manage coating problems after parts are already in the field.

Common Applications and Industries

Xylan industrial coating service is used across a wide range of demanding industries. Your parts may be a strong candidate if they operate in any of the following environments.

Oil and Gas

Fasteners, valve components, and subsea equipment rely on xylan corrosion-resistant coating to survive exposure to moisture, salt, and chemicals.

Industrial Machinery

Shafts, bushings, and mechanical components benefit from reduced friction and wear, lowering maintenance frequency and extending part life.

Aerospace and Defense

Weight-sensitive assemblies require coatings that perform without adding bulk. Xylan coatings meet the demanding specifications of aerospace and defense suppliers.

Agricultural Equipment

Outdoor equipment faces constant exposure to moisture, chemicals, and abrasion. Xylan provides dependable protection across seasons and field conditions.

Food Processing

Xylan food service coating formulations, including Xylan 8840, are designed for surfaces that contact food. These coatings provide non-stick performance, chemical resistance, and compliance with FDA regulations.

Architectural and Industrial Manufacturing

Structural and manufactured components that require consistent film coverage, corrosion protection, or low-friction performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Xylan Coating Services

Here are the questions our engineering and procurement contacts ask most often when evaluating Xylan coating services for their applications.

How thick is a typical Xylan coating application?

Xylan coatings are thin-film coatings, typically applied between 0.0002 and 0.001 inches (0.5 to 25 microns), depending on the series and your application requirements. This thin profile makes Xylan a reliable choice for precision parts with tight tolerances, where a heavier coating would compromise fit or function.

What is the temperature range for Xylan coatings?

Most Xylan formulations perform reliably in continuous service up to 450°F (232°C). Higher-temperature series can tolerate exposure up to 550°F (288°C) or beyond. The right series depends on your operating environment. Our team will confirm the appropriate formulation before your project begins.

How does Xylan compare to standard PTFE?

Xylan is not a generic PTFE coating. It is a proprietary fluoropolymer coating engineered to defined performance targets including specific coefficient of friction ranges, adhesion standards, and chemical resistance levels. Standard PTFE coatings can vary widely in composition and consistency. When your application has specific performance requirements, Xylan gives you a more controlled and predictable result.

Can Xylan be applied to any metal?

Xylan coatings are most applied to steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Other metal substrates may also be compatible, depending on the series and surface preparation method. If you are working with a less common substrate or a complex part geometry, bring us the details, and we will confirm compatibility before your project moves forward.
