PVDcoating meaning

The cost is higher than other countertop materials, but the durability and longevity of stainless steel countertops make them an excellent investment. Steel countertops are easy to clean and maintain, and they do not require resealing like other materials. In addition, they have a long life span and do not chip, crack, or burn easily.

Standard stainless steel countertops come with 304, #4 brushed finished. If fingerprints or smudges are a concern, choose a brushed finish for its smooth, soft look which more easily hides evidence of sticky fingers. This is applicable for most applications but with specialized countertop materials there are always exceptions. Material 316 on the other hand is used in many specialized medical and healthcare environments. This alloy type gives additional strength and durability because is includes up to 3% molybdenum. Some industries where this is common are outdoor stainless countertops/cabinet, medical devices, and marine environments.

As a professional PVD coating stainless steel supplier, we offer PVD-coated stainless steel for customers to choose from. Our PVD coating stainless steel, with physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), is a process to produce a metal vapor (titanium, chromium, and aluminum) that can be deposited on electrically conductive materials as a thin highly adhered pure metal or alloy coating. The process is carried out in a vacuum chamber using a cathodic arc source.

Our PVD coated stainless steel use Stanch innovative new techniques to make the PVD-colored coats much harder and more durable than others. The general coating deposition method coats the product with a film of 0.1-0.2 microns thick, but we make it thicker for better wear, scratch, and corrosion resistance making its durability superior to general coating methods such as electroplating or other PVD processes. Stanch new PVD technique can be achieved a smooth PVD coat with good scratch resistance compared to other PVD processes as well.

What isPVDcoating on stainless steel

The coating compounds are made up of various elements such as carbides, nitrides, borides, and silicide. A wide variety of colors can be achieved by adding different gases during the deposition.

A backsplash or rear curb help contain the surrounding elements from water and chemical spills or daily use of operations. Options for backsplashes include rear, left hand, right hand, or a combination of any configuration. Usually, the construction walls of the facility predetermine which sides of the countertop require this splash, if needed for vertical protection. Typical height is set at 4”H but custom modifications are available if 6”, 8” or larger if needed.

The stainless steel undercounter support options available are stainless steel hat channels or a plywood sub core which is available upon request. Hat channels are made of 304 stainless steel and are typically used if your facility, lab or kitchen has material requirements and specifications. This is the standard to be flexible for all situations. The hat channels enable that the cabinets or table legs have somewhere for the installer to screw into. Stainless steel self tapping screws will be sufficient for the install team. Plywood sub core is the other option, this is an additional cost but for some situations the correct choice! Either option, the sealing process makes for a closed off bottom surface. Both options provide strong support and ensure the countertop can be fastened properly for years to come.
