AT 1400 – ALPHASHIELD
AT 1400 - AlphaShield gun coating is the premium high performance protective coating for firearms. The coating is tough, durable and provides long term protection against corrosion, weathering, and abrasion. It may be applied to metal and non-metal surfaces. Coating is thermally stable to extreme temperatures (1200°F+/648°C+) and it retains adhesion even after multiple thermal cycles.
Proudly manufactured in the USA.
- High performance single component coating.
- Extreme adhesion. Forms covalent bond to the substrate giving it an intrinsic bond to surfaces.
- Very tough and durable.
- Excellent UV, chemical and abrasion resistance.
- High anti-corrosion performance.
- Extreme heat & flame resistance.
- Easy to apply.
- Curable by ambient air (accelerated oven curing possible).
- May be applied to metal and non-metal surfaces.
- VOC exempt.
- RoHS and REACH compliant.
