Overview of Triondur® Coating Systems
Triondur® offers tailor-made coating systems designed for heavily loaded components, providing excellent anti-wear protection, low friction, high load capacity, and increased corrosion resistance. These coatings extend component life, allow for downsizing, and promote resource savings.

Coating Production and Characteristics
Triondur® coatings are produced using PVD and plasma-aided CVD processes in a vacuum. The entire process chain is optimized for the specific coating system, ensuring the best performance by considering the base material, surface, and functional layer together.

Types of Triondur® Coatings

• Triondur® CN: A nitridic chromium coating with high hardness and ductility, suitable for high-load parts with adequate oil provision.
• Triondur® C: A carbon-based coating that reduces dry friction against steel by up to 80%, ideal for rolling bearing applications.
• Triondur® CNN: Features high load capacity and shear strength, preferred for anti-wear protection in lubricant starvation conditions.
• Triondur® C+, CX+: Multilayered systems for very high tribomechanical loads, offering the highest resistance to abrasive wear.

Coating Performance
Each coating type offers varying levels of microhardness, coating thickness, and friction reduction. Triondur® C+ and CX+ provide the most significant improvements in abrasive wear protection, while Triondur® CN and CNN offer enhanced corrosion resistance.

Applications
Triondur® coatings are suitable for engine components, rolling bearing components, and automotive engineering, providing significant improvements in wear protection and component longevity.
