Need high-temp "rubber" coating
Hey I'm looking to coat some 0.5" aluminum rods with some sort of coating to increase the friction coefficient ("tackiness" I believe it's called). It will be used in high temperature environments of up to 200C. Does anyone know of such product?
I tried calling this company but that product can't get anywhere near 200C. http://www.plastidip.com/home_solutions/Plasti_Dip Thanks! |

It's just that silicone won't adhere to aluminium. Maybe things get less bad if you anodise first.
My suggestion is a nickel layer. These have a high coefficient of friction, and better, they don't gall. You already know that aluminium alloys are capable of nearly nothing at 200°, do you? |

could try a belzona coating depending on what your doing
http://www.belzona.com/products.aspx They are usually painted on smooth, but I can imagine you cant make it rougher when you apply it. Also expensive but good for temps up to 180°C |
