Discover our High-Performance Spring Wire Coatings, which add Durability, Lubricity and Corrosion Resistance.
Central Wire produces a full line of economical and cost saving coatings for stainless steel and corrosion resistance nickel alloy spring wires. Central Wireās soap and nickel flash coatings enable a higher level of productivity. Wire produced with a specialty coating exhibits excellent coilability at high speeds and often requires no additional lubricant during manufacture. Coatings on spring wires reduce the stress on coiling equipment, extending equipment life and minimizing down time. Whether you need a nickel flash coating, or a copper with soap coating, CWI has you covered.
Central Wireās specialty coatings also enhance the look and performance of stainless steel and corrosion resistant nickel alloy springs. They have proven to enhance corrosion resistance and maintain a bright, finished look over extended periods. All coatings are tested under rigorous quality assurance programs, ensuring consistency in the most severe processing conditions and performance in the most stressful applications.
