TiN COATED GAGES LAST LONGER AS A VISUAL CHECK FOR WEAR

Swanson Tool Manufacturing’s High-Speed Steel TiN Coated Thread Gages offer significant savings over tool steel gages because they last up to 10X longer. The TiN (titanium nitride) coating is recognized for its enhanced lubricity, corrosion resistance, and is harder than both chrome and carbide material.

Swanson Tool Manufacturing's High-Speed Steel TiN Coated Thread Gages offer significant savings over tool steel gages because they last up to 10X longer. The TiN (titanium nitride) coating is recognized for its enhanced lubricity, corrosion resistance, and is harder than both chrome and carbide material.

The TiN coating provides a visual check for gage wear, since its metallic gold appearance will start to lose its luster as the gage wears. Other advantages of the Titanium Nitride Coating are its excellent adhesion (won't flake) and low coefficient of friction, resulting in a longer lasting gage.

Swanson's TiN Coated High-Speed Steel Thread Gages provide the performance required for a variety of demanding applications, including gaging high volumes and highly abrasive, soft or aerospace-type materials. They are stocked in standard taperlock inch and metric sizes. In addition, the company's engineering department can help design gages for special applications. www.swansongage.com
