Ceramic coatings

The LoneStar Group offers in-house ceramic coating services to protect precision-engineered fasteners, bolts and components.

Once applied, these advanced coatings create hard, durable, highly resistant integrity barriers that are trusted across critical industries.

Advanced coating systems for demanding environments

Ceramic coatings provide a durable, high-performance protective barrier designed for components operating in aggressive and high-temperature environments. By combining ceramic coatings as part of a complete protective system, these advanced finishes create a thin, hard, corrosion-resistant surface able to withstand mechanical wear and extreme thermal or chemical degradation.

Due to these high-integrity properties, fasteners protected by ceramic coatings can be deployed in demanding environments that would normally preclude their use, including automotive, aerospace, marine and offshore energy industries.

High-integrity properties

Ceramic-coated fasteners are deployed in the most demanding environments, including automotive, aerospace, marine and offshore energy industries.

Performance and reliability

Specific systems can withstand extreme heat, are highly durable against abrasion and are resistant to a wide range of chemicals and acids.

Optimum corrosion resistance

Burnishing compresses coating particles by peening or polishing to increase density and corrosion resistance while creating a smooth, bright metallic finish.

The LoneStar Group offers the following ceramic coatings

Xylar 1*

  • An aqueous/acidic-based aluminium coating.
  • Excellent chemical, corrosion and abrasion resistance at extreme temperatures.
  • Also protects from high temperature oxidation and salt-laden atmospheres.

Xylar 2* 

  • A hard, cermet finish that offers a robust sacrificial barrier to corrosion and wear. 

SermaGard 1105 

  • An aluminium-filled basecoat system.
  • Designed to provide outstanding salt corrosion protection and UV resistance.
  • Trusted to protect in extreme offshore atmospheric and subsea environments. 

SermaGard 1280 

  • An aluminium-filled basecoat/resin-bonded fluoropolymer topcoat system.
  • Designed to provide outstanding salt corrosion protection and UV resistance.
  • Trusted to protect in extreme offshore atmospheric and subsea environments. 

* Xylar 1 and Xylar 2 are no longer available in Europe.
