Teflon & Specialty Functional Coatings in Texas

Some parts need more than color and corrosion protection — they need to slide, release, resist chemicals, or wipe clean. Gleco applies specialty functional coatings, including Teflon-S® (PTFE-based) and nylon systems, plus ceramic and other engineered finishes, at our Rowlett, Texas coatings operation under an AS9100D and ISO 9001:2015 quality system.

What do Teflon and specialty coatings do for a part?

Depending on the system, they deliver non-stick and low-friction release, wear resistance, chemical and corrosion resistance, and cleanability — often at very low film thickness — for parts that plating or paint alone cannot serve.
