Cerakote Evaluation of 10X EpiX in Real-World Workflows

What You’ll Learn:

  • Cerakote blast essentials
  • How blast profile, cleanliness, and consistency impact coating performance.
  • An inside look into Cerakote’s technical evaluation and testing processes
  • Standardized aluminum oxide and garnet comparisons, blast profile measurements, and key ASTM test results (adhesion, impact, bend, scratch/gouge, corrosion, abrasion, thermal cycling, and more).
  • Results with 10X EpiX MP
  • How EpiX MP performed against target profiles and performance tests, and what stayed the same vs. what changed when using a unique engineered superoxalloy abrasive
  • Media design, safety, and supply
  • What EpiX MP is, how it’s made, and why it is classified by IARC in the same Group 3 category as coffee (not classifiable as carcinogenic to humans), explained in practical terms.
  • Recommended settings & transition tips
  • Joint guidance from Cerakote and 10X on dialing in EpiX MP for Cerakote: nozzle, pressure, stand-off, and how to approach test panels when changing media.
