Halar Coating and Its Benefits in the Medical Industry

At Precision Dip Coating, we specialize in providing top-quality coatings for a wide variety of products in many different industries, including many different pieces of equipment used in the medical industry. One type of coating we offer for many parts used in this industry is Halar coating.

What Is Halar Coating?

Halar is the trade name for ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene (ECTFE), a type of plastic, the coating is used on various parts to increase durability and resistance to many causes of wear. 

How Is It Used in the Medical Industry?

In the medical industry, parts are often exposed to many chemicals and other hazards, and sterilization is a necessity. Parts, instruments, and components used in this industry must meet the highest safety standards, which Halar coating can help achieve.

Halar coating is used to improve durability and help ensure the safe use of tools and parts such as:
  • Bottles
  • Clamps
  • Tweezers
  • Speculums
  • Sterilization case brackets
  • Sterilization case covers
Some of the specific benefits that Halar coating provides include:
  • High impact strength
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Chemical resistance
  • Extreme temperature resistance
  • Low dielectric constant
  • High electrical resistance
Halar coating is also used for products that are likely to experience a large amount of friction. Working to minimize this friction, the coating between various parts keeps them in better condition for many years. If you want to increase the longevity of your parts, Halar coating can give them the protection they need to resist damage resulting from friction, extreme temperatures, chemicals, and electricity.
