Are Armoloy TDC Coatings Magnetic?
No, Armoloy Thin Dense Chrome (TDC) coatings are non-magnetic.
This characteristic is especially important in industries where magnetic interference could cause performance issues or safety concerns. Non-magnetic coatings like Armoloy TDC are ideal for:
-
Medical Devices: In surgical environments and MRI applications, magnetic materials can interfere with sensitive imaging equipment or pose risks during procedures. Non-magnetic surfaces ensure compatibility with diagnostic tools and reduce the chance of distortion in imaging results.
-
Electronics and Semiconductors: Precision instruments and high-frequency devices often require non-magnetic components to avoid electromagnetic interference (EMI), which can degrade signal quality or disrupt functionality.
-
Aerospace and Defense: In these industries, non-magnetic materials help prevent navigational and communication disturbances, especially in environments where radar or sensitive magnetic sensors are involved.
In contrast, magnetic coatings may be suitable for industrial applications where magnetic properties are beneficial—for instance, in magnetic clamps, lifting equipment, or sensing mechanisms that rely on ferromagnetic interaction.
Armoloy TDC’s non-magnetic nature, combined with its exceptional wear resistance, corrosion protection, and hardness, makes it a trusted solution for components where both mechanical durability and magnetic neutrality are essential.
