DACRO™ – High-Tech anti-corrosion coating

DACRO™ protective coatingis a system consisting of three layers:

• zinc;
• chemical anti-corrosion, conversion coating;
• ceramic agglomerate.

All the layer are firmly interconnected by cross-links created by the second, conversion layer. This unique agglomerate solution prevents peeling of the outer ceramic layer. The entire system gives exceptional anti-corrosion properties.
