Proprietary Coating

PMC Lone Star offers a proprietary coating which far exceeds the wear resistance of plain steel, chrome plated, and TiN coated gages. In addition to the superior wear resistance of this proprietary coating, it also has the ability to be stripped and re-coated an unlimited number of times resulting in a gage that has the potential to last a lifetime. This proprietary coating can be applied to standard tool steels, lowering material and production cost, thereby lowering the cost of the gage to an average of only 1.4 times the cost of standard steel gages.

PMC Lone Star offers three different coating options which provide unique advantages over uncoated gages:

• Chrome Plating is an economical option for users looking for increased wear resistance.
• TiN (Titanium Nitride) Coating is an excellent option for users seeking a gage with greater wear resistance than plain steel or chrome plated gages.
• Proprietary Coating for superior wear resistance with the ability to be stripped and re-coated an unlimited number of times resulting in a gage that has the potential to last a lifetime.
