描述
Xylan 1420 is a waterborne, resin-bonded, thermosetting single-layer barrier coating from Whitford Corporation (now PPG), part of the Xylan 1400 Series . As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation.
Unlike Xylan 1010 (high PTFE lubricity) or Xylan 1052 (extreme pressure), Xylan 1420 is specifically formulated as a waterborne barrier coating for fasteners, designed for corrosion protection and ease of assembly torque control . Although it contains a small percentage of PTFE lubricant to facilitate installation and prevent galling, it is considered a barrier coating rather than a dry-film lubricant .
Xylan 1420 is a waterborne/VOC compliant coating, offering a more environmentally friendly alternative to solvent-based coatings . It is specifically engineered for the fastener and oil tool industries, providing excellent corrosion protection in harsh environments .
The coating offers excellent salt spray resistance – over 1500 hours ASTM B-117 when applied at 1 mil (25 microns) over zinc-phosphated steel . It protects substrates from chemical exposure, especially high pH substances , and provides UV stability for outdoor use .
Xylan 1420 also offers brighter color options including yellow and red, which have proved difficult to match in this type of coating material. This high visibility benefits offshore and petrochemical industries by improving component identification in difficult working conditions .

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 1420 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Degrease (acetone or isopropanol) → grit-blast (Sa2.5, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm) → zinc/manganese phosphate (recommended) |
| Primer (Optional) | Xylan P-5211, Xylan® 1, Xylan P-51, or Xylan P-501 recommended for enhanced corrosion protection |
| Coating Preparation | Slow-speed mechanical stirring; dilute with deionized water only |
| Application | Dip-spin (for fasteners) or conventional spray (HVLP) |
| Flash-off | Room temperature air dry |
| Curing | 290–320°C for 20–30 minutes; or 370–390°C for 15–20 minutes |
| Storage | Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shelf life: 18 months |
Critical Processing Warnings:
Surface Preparation: Proper surface preparation is critical for adhesion. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and properly roughened to Sa2.5 grade, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm .
Phosphate Pretreatment: Zinc or manganese phosphate is recommended for steel fasteners to maximize corrosion resistance .
Primer: Better corrosion protection if used over a sacrificial primer such as Xylan P-5211, Xylan® 1, Xylan P-51, or Xylan P-501 .
Coating Thickness: Target 17–25 μm (0.7–1.0 mil) dry film thickness .
Storage: Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
