Re: VEX PRO. To use it or not to use it.

The Ceramic Coating as we describe it is based on the MIL spec hard coat anodizing process. There are a few tweaks to the chemistry (including flouropolomers, aka Teflon, and others) with more ceramic like properties. We selected the material because of the years of testing and actual industrial use while I was at FANUC Robotics. It is similar the base hard coat process, but just some extra tweaks.

When we switched to this material for all of our aluminum wear parts, it eliminated a lot of the problems we were having with other processes (hard chrome, electroless nickel, to name a few).
