Surface Modification Product Know-How

ERIKS provides a range of surface modification processes to reduce friction or surface contamination.

Listed below are a few of the options for surface treatment that ERIKS offers. These treatments range from internally-lubricated elastomers to more exotic SurfaceModified (SuMo) parts.

In addition to the SuMo process which physically and chemically modifies the surface, ERIKS provides additional processes which may significantly improved dynamic performance. DepoPar polymer coatings can be vacuum deposited in thicknesses from 0.003 to 0.1 on many surfaces. The Ultralube™ WS2 coating has demonstrated reduced friction and can eliminate galling on metal parts.
