Infinium A
Infinium A is a multilayer Aluminum Titanium Nitride based coating. Infinium A development-based coatings are the most significant advancement in wear coatings since the introduction of Titanium Nitride. Infinium A addition to the coating not only increases cold and hot hardness but also can double the maximum operating temperature of Infinium A coated components.
