DICRONITE Coating For Medical Device

Service Details:

• Reduce wear and friction with ultralow coefficient of friction (μ= 0.030)

• Precision film (0.5 microns maximum) enables pre-design specification or correcting after-design issues (e.g. stick-slip, galling, etc)
• Wide functional temperature range (-188 deg C to +538 deg C) permits harsh environments
• Radiation and x-ray stable, withstands all common sterilization procedures

• Biocompatible

• ISO-10993-5 for Biocompatibility
• ISO-13402 and ASTM F-1089 for Sterilization of Surgical Hand Instruments
• Gamma Ray stability for Sterilization
• ASTM F-945 for Titanium Stress Corrosion
• ASTM E-595 for Vacuum Stability/Outgassing
• FDA Masterfile to support FDA Device Approval 
• Additional testing upon request 

• Dental air-drill gear and bearing lubrication providing longer life, lower friction and reduced maintenance
• Surgical tool hinge/pivot lubrication enabling higher precision tolerances reduced wear and greater reliability
• Anti-galling treatment for titanium and stainless bone fixturing hardware
• Bearing, magnetic motion component and linear guide lubrication in vacuum environments inside medical imaging equipment enabling longer life and reduced cost
• Guidewires, endosurgical tool guides and cannula to reduce insertion force and minimize galling 
• Ophthalmological biopsy sampling device with sliding inside diameter sampling tube against outside diameter tube to prevent galling and reduce actuation force.

• Producing sophisticated precision molded drug delivery devices
• Increasing production line throughput by reducing container sticking in
• Sorting and filling equipment
• Decreasing friction in endosurgery tools and insertion devices
• Eliminating galling and binding during precision assembly of tight tolerance devices.
• Lubricating valves, fluid pump components and threaded connectors toreduce friction and wear.
