描述
Xylan 1088 is a solvent-based, reinforced PTFE dry film lubricant coating from Whitford Corporation (now PPG). As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation.
Unlike Xylan 1010 (standard 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 1088 is a reinforced version of Xylan 1010 with internal reinforcement to provide extended wear life and improved abrasion resistance.
Xylan 1088 is specifically designed for high-speed and/or low-temperature environments where standard PTFE coatings may not provide sufficient durability. The internal reinforcement system enhances the coating’s resistance to mechanical stress while maintaining the low-friction properties that PTFE is known for.
Typical applications include rotary actuators, bearings, carburettors, fasteners, and any wear surface requiring secondary lubrication to reduce friction, prevent scoring and galling. Xylan 1088 also offers excellent chemical resistance, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Key Features of Xylan 1088 Coating
-
Internal Reinforcement – Enhanced formulation provides extended wear life and improved abrasion resistance compared to standard PTFE coatings like Xylan 1010
-
Low Coefficient of Friction – Maintains low friction values (0.08–0.11 typical) for smooth operation in high-speed applications
-
Excellent Chemical Resistance – Resists acids, bases, solvents, and aggressive chemicals, providing secondary protection for wear surfaces
-
Wide Temperature Range – Continuous service from -250°C to 285°C (-418°F to 545°F), suitable for cryogenic and high-temperature applications
-
Scoring and Galling Prevention – Reduces friction to prevent surface damage on mating components
-
Multiple Color Options – Available in blue, black, green, yellow, and custom colors for identification and traceability
-
Solvent-Based Formulation – Provides excellent wetting, leveling, and adhesion to properly prepared metal substrates
-
Resin-Bonded Durability – Thermoset fluoropolymer matrix provides durable, long-lasting protection

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 1088 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Alkaline cleaning or acetone degreasing + grit-blast (Sa2.5 grade, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm) |
| Primer Application (Required) | Apply Xylan® 2 primer, dry film thickness 2.5–5 μm, cure at 380°C for 5–10 minutes |
| Topcoat Application | Apply Xylan 1088 by spray (conventional or HVLP), dip coating, or roll coating |
| Curing | Cure at 380°C for 10–20 minutes (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. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and properly roughened to Sa2.5 grade, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm.
Primer Application: Xylan 1088 typically requires a primer (Xylan® 2) for optimal adhesion and maximum corrosion protection (1,500–4,000 hours salt spray).
Curing: Cure time depends on part mass and oven characteristics. Always verify with test pieces.
Storage: Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
