Xylan Wellhead and Gate valve Coating 1000 Series Options

• Xylan Coating 1006 contains the highest percentage of PTFE lubricant of the Series.
• Xylan Coating 1010 provides the optimum combination of low friction, wear-resistance, and high-temperature release.
• Xylan Coating 1014 alters the ratio of PTFE lubricant to bonding polymers to achieve a harder, more abrasion-resistant coating with the least sacrifice in frictional values.
• Xylan Coating 1424 series fastener class coating material is a waterborne/VOC-compliant, resin bonded, thermally cured, single film, dry lubricant. It is primarily formulated for use on fasteners to prevent corrosion and facilitate make-up torque.
• Xylan Coating 1052 contains a number of high pressure (EP) lubricating solids selected to increase the load-bearing capability and life of the basic coating while maintaining an extremely low coefficient of friction.
• Xylan Coating 1070 contains corrosion inhibitors for better corrosion resistance. It excels in applications requiring a dry-film lubricant effective against a broad spectrum of chemicals and corrosives.
• Xylan  Coating 1088 is a reinforced version of Xylan 1010, for added abrasion resistance.

Additional Xylan information

Xylan coatings are commonly used in wellhead components to protect against corrosion and extend the life of the equipment. These coatings are made of a variety of polymers that are applied to the surface of the material to provide a protective barrier against the harsh environments present in the well. Xylan coatings are typically used on carbon steel and stainless steel components, but can also be used on other materials, such as nickel-based alloys.

One of the key benefits of Xylan coatings is their ability to protect against imperfections in the material. Even high-strength materials like steel can have small surface imperfections that can lead to corrosion and premature failure. Xylan coatings are designed to fill in these imperfections, creating a smooth, uniform surface that is less prone to corrosion. By filling in the imperfections in the material, Xylan coatings also reduce the risk of stress corrosion cracking, which can occur when small cracks form in the material due to stress or corrosion.

Another benefit of Xylan coatings is their ability to withstand high temperatures and pressures. Wellhead components are exposed to extreme temperatures and pressures, and Xylan coatings are designed to withstand these conditions without breaking down or degrading. This helps to extend the life of the equipment and reduce maintenance costs.

Overall, Xylan coatings are an important tool in protecting wellhead components from corrosion and other forms of damage. By filling in imperfections in the material and providing a protective barrier against the harsh environments present in the well, Xylan coatings help to extend the life of the equipment and reduce maintenance costs over time. Wellhead service providers are well-versed in the use of Xylan coatings and other protective measures and can help to ensure that wellhead components are properly protected and maintained throughout the life of the well.
