Applied Coatings & Dry Film Lubricants

Functional coating solutions applied to reduce friction, enhance durability, and protect components in demanding environments.

LubeCo provides applied coating solutions designed to improve performance, reliability, and service life of aerospace and industrial components. These coatings are applied as controlled surface layers—rather than chemical surface transformations—allowing precise control over friction, wear, corrosion resistance, and environmental protection.

Key Benefits

  • Reduced friction and wear in sliding or high-contact applications
  • Improved resistance to galling and seizing
  • Enhanced durability and environmental protection
  • Consistent, repeatable coating quality across production runs
  • Application-specific performance tuning through material and coating selection

Technical Range

LubeCo’s chemical and electrochemical surface treatment capabilities include processes designed to alter surface chemistry, improve corrosion resistance, and meet applicable industry and customer specifications, including:

  • Solid dry film lubricants:
    • Molybdenum-based systems
    • Graphite-based systems
    • Tungsten compound lubricants
    • Organic and inorganic dry film formulations
  • PTFE / Teflon-based coatings: Applied to provide low-friction, non-stick, or wear-resistant surfaces distinct from solid dry film lubricants
  • Primers: Applied to promote adhesion and corrosion resistance prior to topcoats or additional finishing processes
  • Topcoats / paint systems: Protective coatings applied for environmental protection, durability, or identification

OnSite Equipment

LubeCo’s applied coating operations are supported by equipment and controls appropriate for precision coating application and curing, including:

  • Controlled spray and application systems for uniform coating deposition
  • Curing and bake ovens to properly set and bond applied coatings
  • Material handling and fixturing systems to ensure consistent coverage across complex geometries
  • Environmental controls to support coating integrity and repeatability
