描述
Xylan 1070 is an organic solvent-based, low-friction PTFE dry film coating from Whitford Corporation (now PPG), developed in the early 1970s primarily for coating threaded fasteners . 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), Xylan 1014 (hardness-focused), Xylan 1052 (extreme pressure with MoS₂), Xylan 1054 (MoS₂+graphite long-term wear), and Xylan 1058 (FEP-based mold coatings), Xylan 1070 is the most widely used general-purpose fastener coating across the Xylan portfolio . It is the industry standard for stud bolts and threaded fasteners, offering the optimal balance of friction control, corrosion protection, and cost-effectiveness.
Xylan 1070 is typically applied over a zinc phosphate or zinc plating pretreatment, forming a barrier coating system that delivers exceptional corrosion protection—up to 3,000 to 5,000 hours in neutral salt spray tests . The coating provides consistent torque-tension performance, reducing the nut factor (K factor) to approximately 0.10-0.12, compared to 0.20 for bare steel and 0.15 for moly-lubricated bolts .
The coating performs reliably across a wide temperature range, from cryogenic conditions (-195°C) up to 260°C continuously, and intermittently to 285°C . It is trusted across major industries including oil & gas, petrochemical, wind energy, and general industrial applications requiring reliable bolting connections .

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 1070 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Grit-blasting to Sa2.5 (near-white metal) per ISO 8501-1; or zinc phosphate / zinc plating pretreatment |
| Primer Application (Recommended) | Apply inorganic zinc or organic binder primer (e.g., Whitford primer 4090), cure at 150–200°C |
| Topcoat Application | Apply Xylan 1070 by spray (conventional air spray or HVLP) or dip coating |
| Curing | Cure at 220°C – 345°C (401°F – 653°F) substrate temperature |
| 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 and corrosion performance. For maximum corrosion resistance (3,000+ hours salt spray), apply over zinc phosphate or zinc plating pretreatment .
Cure Test: Cure completeness should be verified using Whitford test method 115B (solvent resistance test). No white precipitate or stain should appear after testing .
Adhesion Test: Perform cross-hatch tape test per ASTM D3359. Acceptance criteria: 5B classification (no loss of adhesion) .
Storage: Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shelf life: 18 months.
