  • Friction
  • Hardness

NITRIBOL - a Chemical Nickel-Teflon Coating

Chemical nickel-teflon, also known as NiPTFE or electroless nickel with PTFE (Teflon), is an advanced composite coating that combines the unique properties of PTFE and electroless nickel. The coating offers exceptional non-stick properties, low friction, dry lubrication, and high wear resistance – ideal for applications where conventional lubrication is impractical. 

Applications 

  • Butterfly valves and precision mechanical components 

  • Plastic and rubber molds (reduces the need for release agents) 

  • Medical plastic production 

  • Aluminum cylinders and components subject to high mechanical stress 

Technical Advantages 

  • Low coefficient of friction (0.02 – 0.1) 

  • Dry lubrication – ideal for dynamic contact surfaces 

  • PTFE content: 5–30% (by volume) 

  • PTFE particle size: 0.2 µm 

  • Non-magnetic and chemically resistant 

  • Uniform coating even on complex geometries 

  • Suitable for almost all metal surfaces 

  • Temperature resistant up to 300°C 

Environment and Compliance 

We use NiKlad ICE Ultra RC from MacDermid Enthone – an optimized solution that replaces former PFAS-containing products. This coating is free from PFAS-based surfactants and complies with the strictest international standards, including REACh, RoHS, ELV, and WEEE. 

NiKlad ICE Ultra RC was developed in response to increasing global restrictions on PFAS and PFOA. The coating: 

  • Is applied and cured below 100°C, eliminating the risk of PTFE decomposition into harmful components 

  • Eliminates the need for fluorinated surfactants 

  • Complies with REACh Entry #68 (<25 ppb PFOA)
