Adm™

A unique, patented amorphous diamond material providing extended performance in critical applications increasing lifetime, durability and reliability in the most extreme conditions.

Aerospace

Extremes of temperature, vibration and pressure coupled with the requirement for light weighting challenges the limits of traditional materials. Adamant® coatings enhance existing substrates making them more durable, abrasion resistant and low friction.

Defence

Reliability, performance and resistance to harsh conditions are critical to ensuring equipment performs as required, when required. Adamant® coatings enhance the mechanical performance of critical components.

Oil & Gas

Critical Equipment used for downhole exploration experiences some of the severest conditions on earth; heat, humidity, acidic and alkali environments. Adamant® coatings ensure components perform longer and better in these conditions.

Motorsport

Maximising speed, power and performance pushes traditional materials to their limit. Adamant® coatings ensure failures do not occur before a positive outcome is secured.

Process Plant

Reliability, safety and performance are key to ensuring optimum uptime and equipment output. Adamant® coatings enhance the reliability and predictability of components.

Thermal Management

Heat dissipation and electrical insulation are critical characteristics for optimising the performance of modern electronics. ThermaSp3C™ coatings are well adhered to heat dissipation materials and have 3 times the thermal conductivity of copper.
