描述
Xylan 8514 is a PTFE-based decorative dry film lubricant coating from Whitford Corporation (now PPG), part of the Xylan 8500 Series. As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation.
The Xylan 8500 Series is distinguished by its striking colors, including bright white and metallic finishes, and low processing temperatures of 525°F (275°C). These coatings bond well to steel and aluminum with minimal surface preparation, and the cured film is stain-resistant and unaffected by cooking oils, dishwasher detergents, and many household chemicals.
Xylan 8514 is classified as a fastener-grade coating, providing low friction and excellent corrosion resistance. It offers low-gloss, easy-clean finishes in a broad spectrum of rich colors and contains a relatively high percentage of PTFE. The bright white version, Xylan 8514/903, is favored for medical equipment because it lends a “clean room” appearance to exterior surfaces.
The coating is part of Whitford’s Xylan fluoropolymer system, which through composite material technology integrates ultra-low friction specialty lubricants with high-temperature organic polymers to form a unique “plastic alloy” structure.
Key Features of Xylan 8514 Coating

Important Notes on Typical Data:
Values listed are typical and sourced from manufacturer data sheets. They do not constitute binding product specification.
Batch-to-batch deviations may exist. For critical applications, validate performance with batch-specific COA certificate.
Final performance depends on substrate preparation, application method, and curing conditions.
Manufacturer official TDS shall serve as definitive technical reference. Request the latest official TDS from our sales team.
Processing Guidelines for Xylan 8514 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Degrease (acetone or isopropanol) → grit-blast (Sa2.5, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm); minimal surface preparation required for steel and aluminum |
| Coating Preparation | Low-speed mechanical stirring; dilute with manufacturer-recommended solvent |
| Application | Spray (conventional or HVLP), dip, or dip-spin coating |
| Curing | Cure at 525°F (275°C); part mass and oven characteristics determine exact time |
| 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. Xylan 8500 Series coatings bond well to steel and aluminum with minimal surface preparation.
Curing: Cure at 525°F (275°C). 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.
