PharmaCote CX and CX+, an enhanced Chromium Nitride, are a range of coatings developed to improve the performance of substrate material for punches and dies. The coating offers a smooth finish and anti-stick performance, the company reports. PharmaCote CX provides prolonged tooling life due to a multi-layered application. It also offers up to 13 times more corrosion resistance than PharmaCote HC (Hard Chromium) and up to two times the life of PharmaCote CN (Chromium Nitride).
