Cerakote Firearms Finishes

With a unique ceramic backbone structure, Cerakote products improve performance and significantly increase the level of thermal transfer. This state-of-the-art coating technology out-performs any competitive coating in both laboratory test settings and in real world applications.

Cerakote firearm coatings are reliable, safe and are available in sleek satin or matte finishes. With these coatings, gun enthusiasts, military personnel, police officers and others are ensured of efficiency and function. The air- or oven-cured Cerakote line of coatings will smooth rough surfaces, withstand high temperatures and cyclic rates, resist chemicals, oils and solvents used in the manufacturing process, and protect against corrosion and abrasion in the field.

Independent laboratory tests concluded that Cerakote firearm coatings outperformed Teflon-based coatings by more than 60%. With self-lubricating elements, unmatched hardness and the unique backbone structure, these coatings outlast and protect in order to maintain the value, precision and operational integrity of weapons and their accessories.
