Xylan Coating Fasteners by RocCLAD | High-Performance Corrosion Resistance Solutions
What is Xylan Coating?
Xylan® coating, developed by Whitford®, is a high-performance industrial coating renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance, self-lubricating properties, and wear resistance. Widely used in demanding industries like Oil & Gas, Xylan® coatings combine advanced dry-film lubricants with polymers to reduce friction, resist chemical corrosion, and endure extreme temperatures. Roc-Master leverages Whitford®’s Xylan® technology in its RocCote® series fasteners, offering a cost-effective alternative to stainless steel, nickel alloys, and titanium.
