Our team has developed a novel approach to solve the adhesion issues surrounding the PFOA reformulation. This pre-treatment process has the ability to restore the wire surface to a pristine state, imparting optimum surface conditions for the coating to wet-out, adhere, and form a stable, cohesive coating layer. InterLock Technology™ does not introduce any new chemistry to the process, does not change the current chemical structure of the applied coating, leaves no residual chemicals behind, and does not affect the properties of the wire or the frictional properties of the coating."
InterLock Technology™ provides consistent high bonding strength for PTFE coatings on medical devices. From suppliers to CMOs to OEMs, Precision Coating's InterLock Technology™ is the medical device industry's solution to achieve the desired adhesion on the products coated with aqueous-based PTFE coating.
