| When Strength Meets Reliability |
|
TechCera™ ceramic is Hi-Tech Seals' family of superior performing advanced ceramic materials. Ceramic components are lightweight and exhibit excellent mechanical properties and extreme hardness. They offer remarkable resistance to corrosion, wear, chemicals, and abrasion. TechCera™ ceramic compounds are ideal for a range of demanding applications as they can retain their properties in extreme environments.
The TechCera™ ceramic family is comprised of alumina and zirconia compounds. Alumina, also known as aluminum oxide (Al2O3), is a well-known and frequently used advanced ceramic. TechCera™ alumina compounds offer a combination of exceptional properties that make them the ideal material for a wide scope of industrial applications. Zirconia, also referred to as zirconium oxide (ZrO2), is excellent for use in extreme environments as it has a high resistance to wear, corrosion, crack propagation, and high temperatures. Zirconia based compounds are hard and durable, with low thermal conductivity and high flexibility. They offer increased strength and fracture toughness over alumina ceramics. Other ceramic materials available upon request.

| We offer both hot isostatic pressed (HIP'd) and cold isostatic pressed (CIP'd) TechCera™ ceramic compounds. HIP'd compounds offer improved mechanical properties while CIP'd compounds allow for production of closer tolerance parts. TechCera™ is a great solution for tough and highly corrosive environments. |
