TOPCOAT® Ultra
This ceramic coating is mainly used where a very high degree of chemical resistance against strong acids or bases is required. The coating is tribologically similar to the standard TOPCOAT®. The colour is dark grey/green.
The coating consists of a plasma-sprayed nickel-chrome adhesive layer with a minimum thickness of 100μm and a chromium oxide ceramic top layer of approximately 200µm.
The areas of application are the same as those of the standard TOPCOAT® ceramic coating, with the following differences:
- Further improved chemical resistance
- Improved hardness
- Improved wear resistance
- Relatively tough coating (by adding SiO2)

Used technique
Plasma spraying
In a plasma spray gun a plasma gas is ionized between an anode and a cathode. The plasma reaches temperatures between 15,000 and 20,000°C. A coating powder is injected into the plasma jet by a carrier gas, where it melts before depositing on the…
