Silicone Die Coatings

Silicone die coatings are used to reduce wear and tear in high-pressure die casting, which can affect product quality and manufacturing productivity. Heat checking is a common cause of die failure in this process.

Tips for Applying Silicone Die Coatings:

• Dilute the coating with water at a ratio of 1:100.
• Stir the coating well before use.
• Apply the coating by spraying.
• Make short passes and keep the pistol moving continuously.
• Apply the coating from multiple directions to avoid the "shadow" effect.
• Allow the coating to dry.
• Clean the equipment after use.
