描述
Xylan 1424 is a waterborne/VOC-compliant, resin-bonded PTFE-based 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 1070 (solvent-based, 3,000+ hours salt spray) or Xylan 1420 (waterborne barrier coating), Xylan 1424 is the most widely specified PTFE fastener coating globally and the North Sea offshore standard . It is a waterborne/VOC-compliant grade that delivers proven corrosion protection and friction control for demanding offshore and subsea applications .
Xylan 1424 is a single-coat, thermosetting system primarily formulated for fasteners to prevent corrosion and facilitate make-up torque . It provides the optimal balance of corrosion protection, friction control, and environmental compliance.
This coating performs reliably across a wide temperature range from -195°C to 285°C . It offers over 1,500 hours salt spray resistance when applied over zinc phosphate pretreatment , making it the go-to solution for offshore oil & gas, petrochemical, and subsea bolting applications.
Key Features of Xylan 1424 Coating

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 1424 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Degrease (acetone or isopropanol) → grit-blast (Sa2.5, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm) → zinc/manganese phosphate (recommended) |
| 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 (554–608°F) for 20–30 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. Degrease thoroughly and grit-blast to Sa2.5 grade with Ra 1.5–4.0 μm . Zinc or manganese phosphate is recommended for steel fasteners to maximize corrosion resistance .
Coating Mixing: Use only deionized water for dilution. Never use tap water, as minerals and impurities can destabilize the coating .
Curing: Cure temperature is substrate temperature, not oven temperature. 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.
