ArresTech Plated Shower Nozzles

Arrestech is a highly controlled proprietary plating process that can achieve any Rockwell surface hardness between the range of Rc 50 – 68 +/- 1 Rockwell point. ArresTech is a proprietary, dry, durable and slippery plating solution incorporating a chemical deposition infused with polymers throughout the thickness of the plating. It is applied to the surface of metals. The plating process delivers a range of unique performance properties unmatched by any other metal plating technology. The plating looks and behaves the same regardless of the base metal to which it is applied.

ArresTech can be applied to steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass, bronze, cast iron and many other metals. Dissimilar metals can be plated.

Since Arrestech plating affects critical dimensions, parts must be redesigned with allowances for the plating thickness.

Besides the increase in hardness over the performance of the base metal, ArresTech also provides an unusual lubricity. And, unlike liquid lubricants that may solidify at low temperatures and often degrade at elevated temperatures, ArresTech performs consistently and predictably across a wide temperature range.
