Performance Ceramic Coatings
for Aerospace and UAVs

Cerakote is used in the aerospace industry on everything from interiors to exteriors, engines to wings, electronics, aerostructures and more.

Cerakote is the global leader in the manufacturing of inorganic thin film ceramic polymer hybrid coating technology.

Cerakote:

  • Can be applied to multiple substrates – Applies to ferrous and non-ferrous metals, alloys, polymers, composites and more.
  • Is a single layer coating system – Replaces multi-layer paint and powder coating systems.
  • Is a thin film ceramic coating that applies at only 0.25 – 2.0 mils, allowing for ultra-light weight coverage and protection.
  • Has superior chemical resistance – Resistant to hydraulic fluids, fuels, solvents, acids, de-icing products, commercial strength disinfectants and more.
  • UV stability – Protects substrates from oxidation and degradation.
  • Is highly abrasion resistant – Withstands impact, scratch and gouging better than other coating systems.
  • Offers high temperature coatings – Corrosion protection coatings that withstand up to 1,800˚F without spalling, cracking, or flaking.
  • Has coatings that provide thermal barrier and heat dissipation.
  • Offers alternatives for plating and pretreatments – Replaces anodizing, nickel plating, and the need for primers.
  • Products are VOC compliant in all 50 states and are REACH/RoHS compliant.
  • Has outstanding customer support including dedicated account managers.

FAA Testing:

  • 45°F Flammability Testing.
  • Combustions Toxicity (Flaming Mode) Test.
