PVD coatings are a versatile and precise technology used in various applications.
How Thick Can PVD Coating Be? 5 Key Insights
1. Thickness Range
The thickness of PVD coatings typically ranges from 0.25 to 5 microns.
2. Decorative Applications
For decorative purposes, such as on stainless steel sheets, coatings can be as thin as 0.30 microns.
3. Functional Applications
In functional applications, the thickness generally ranges between 2 and 5 microns.
4. Wear Conditions
For products subjected to harsher wear conditions, a thicker PVD coating (typically greater than 1μm) is necessary.
5. Substrate Hardness
The substrate should be harder to support the thin coating, preventing it from reaching the fracture point under localized pressure.
