GERNAC 1001

GERNAC 1001 is a unique combination of thin surface layers with an exacting controlled microstructure composition which provide excellent corrosion and wear resistant qualities. [ASTM B 117 1,000 salt spray protection and 70 Rc hardness].

GERNAC multi-layer alloy is an electrodeposition which produces the formation of an inhomogeneous alloy consisting of lamellae of different layer compositions. For example, one layer is deposited laterally while the other is deposited and aligned vertically. Each layer is uniform in thickness and provides different qualities. The layers are synergistically combined to form a superlattice structure which is stronger, more wear resistant and more corrosive resistant than each of its' parts.
