Zintek 200
High-performance, sustainable zinc flake basecoat for enhanced corrosion protection
Zintek 200 is a high-performance silver zinc flake basecoat engineered for exceptional corrosion resistance in demanding environments. Designed for applications in automotive, construction, heavy machinery, and agriculture, this solvent-based coating forms a durable, conductive barrier that protects metal components from oxidation- corrosion.
With its superior adhesion and impact and wear resistance, Zintek 200 provides long-lasting protection. It withstands over 1,000 hours in ISO 9227 Neutral Salt Spray Testing (NSST) without visible corrosion, making it ideal for fasteners, chassis parts, and brake components. Our non-PFAS, heavy metal-free coating meets stringent OEM standards (Volkswagen TL245, Mercedes-Benz MBN10544, General Motors GMW3359), ensuring compatibility with industry requirements. Its high coverage rate (20 m?/kg at 10 ¦Ìm dry film thickness) ensures a remarkable reduction of application costs.
What inspires us
Why we developed Zintek 200
Your challenge
Some zinc flake coatings require multiple layers to achieve acceptable corrosion protection, increasing preparation and application time, labor, and costs. Problems achieving a sufficient and uniform coating thickness occur, leading to weak points and uneven protection. That is why often excessive material needs to be used to achieve sufficient coverage, increasing costs and waste while low coverage rates also slow down economic efficiency and sustainability.
Our solution
We have developed Zintek 200, the silver basecoat that provides superior corrosion protection, excellent adhesion, and cost-effective application. It ensures high-performance cathodic protection, withstanding over 1,000 hours in ISO 9227 Neutral Salt Spray Testing (NSST) without visible corrosion. With strong adhesion, long-lasting protection under mechanical stress, and uniform coverage preventing flaking off, it offers an industry-leading coverage rate of 20 m?/kg at 10 ¦Ìm dry film thickness, reducing material costs.
