Low Friction Powder Coatings

Low Friction Powder Coatings

GENESIS SLIP powder coatings are specially formulated to deliver ultra-low surface friction and exceptional surface hardness, creating smooth, durable finishes that perform where sliding, nesting, or interlocking components demand reduced resistance.
The coating minimizes drag, prevents sticking and chipping, and maintains a clean, sleek appearance even in harsh environments or repetitive mechanical contact.

Applications

GENESIS SLIP is recommended for use wherever low friction and high durability are required, including:

  • Shopping carts and trolleys– nest easily without scratching or chipping.
  • Control cabinets and electrical enclosures– ensure smooth handling and assembly.
  • Industrial drawers, shelving, and conveyors– enhance sliding performance.
  • Machinery housings and moving assemblies– reduce surface friction and mechanical wear.
  • General metal components– improve appearance and extend service life.

Performance Summary

Tested per ASTM D4518, GENESIS SLIP coatings demonstrate up to 35% lower friction coefficient compared to standard polyester or epoxy polyester systems, while retaining outstanding chip, stain, and abrasion resistance.

Key Advantages

  • Excellent low-friction surface – ensures smooth sliding between coated parts.
  • High anti-chip resistance – prevents edge or impact damage.
  • Superior abrasion and scratch resistance – extends coating life under stress.
  • Excellent stain and chemical resistance – resists common industrial contaminants.
  • High surface hardness – maintains finish integrity over prolonged use.
  • Improved surface smoothness – minimizes drag and wear.
  • Available finishes – smooth and textured versions for design flexibility.
  • Environmentally friendly – 100% solvent-free and VOC-free technology.

Technical Description

GENESIS SLIP uses an advanced polyester resin with proprietary friction-reducing additives. The combination of lubricity, toughness, and hardness provides an ideal balance of aesthetics and performance.
It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor metal substrates, offering long-lasting protection and functionality where controlled surface friction is essential.
