Versatile and adaptable: dip coatings from HAMCO

Dip coatings with soft PVC of the Covytec material series are suitable for protecting the surfaces of metal parts and components of almost all sizes and geometries.
The process allows a free choice of different hardnesses and colours while at the same time making the PVC material suitable for industrial, therapeutic or medical applications.

Optional material properties such as increased UV resistance, ESD capability and detectability make PVC an extremely versatile material for coatings and rubber linings.

The glossy surfaces of soft PVC-Covytec dip coatings are also characterised by high coefficients of sliding friction. This makes the surface of the coated parts particularly smooth and non-slip. They are also quick and easy to clean, which makes it possible to maintain, care for and disinfect the coated products.

Application examples in dip coating

PVC coating using the dipping process offers a wide range of possible applications with a variety of material properties.

Handle and operating elements: Soft PVC dip coatings are often used for handles, levers and other operating elements. The surface has a better grip and is non-slip, while at the same time being kind to the skin.
Protective layer: In many cases, a dip coating is used as a protective layer to protect the underlying material from corrosion, aggressive liquids and chemicals or damage caused by physical impact.
Electrical insulation: Plasticised PVC is particularly suitable for the electrical insulation of cable insulators and electrical parts or components.
Medical and hygienic applications: Plasticised PVC is also used in sensitive areas such as medical technology, food technology and children's toys.
Complex geometries: The dipping process is particularly suitable for objects with complicated shapes and parts that need to be coated evenly and without gaps.

The protective function of the coating

An important function of the soft PVC coating is to protect against damage and injuries caused by sharp edges. This increases the safety and durability of the coated products. In many cases, a direct coating with soft PVC is the optimum solution when a rubber coating is required. The coating provides the desired cushioning and scratch resistance and is also a cost-effective solution, for example for transport and storage racks.
