HPIP metal penetration technology is totally different from traditional plating technologies in solid, liquid or gaseous media. Penetrating materials are ionized and accelerated in a high-voltage field toward the base material. High speed ions collide with the base metals, which both heats and softens this material and the ions then penetrate the base metal forming a metallurgical bond.
The penetrating materials become increasingly more dense from the inside to outside of the base metals. The final outer layer is very dense and very tough to withstand severe abrasion and impact.This revolutionary technology ensures that the top surface does not crack or break as can happen in traditional coating and plating techniques. Different penetrating materials, including: Tungsten, Titanium or Chromium Carbide, Nickel, or Molybdenum, produce the following performance benefits:

1. Reduce erosion/wear
2. Withstand heavy corrosion
3. Withstand high impact 

HPIP technology provides a very smooth surface possess­ing the same properties as the penetrating elements but is much more cost-effective. Numerous Case Studies have resulted in Operating Life Improvements from 3.5X to over 7X! HPIP is an ideal protective coating for high abrasion and impact applications such as Oil Sands or Mining Power Shovel Bucket Teeth, Crusher Teeth, Shaker Screens, Wear
