New diamond coating for mechanical seals
DiamondFace microcrystalline coating is newly announced for mechanical seals. It offers outstanding protection against wear during dry running in applications with mixed friction and under exposure to abrasive media. This includes oil-sands-applicable SAGD (steam assisted gravity drainage) processes.
The specially developed crystalline formulation offers the same advantages as natural diamond. On the seal face it has a thickness of up to 8 µm. It is applied via chemical vapor deposition process for long wear, heat conductivity, chemical resistance, and low friction.
