Maximum temperatures usually will be dictated by the construction material (glass, stainless steel, etc.),
not by the surface treatment. In general, temperatures should not exceed those listed in Table I. Temperatures
greater than 450°C for Sulfinert® or Siltek® treated surfaces or greater than 600°C for
Silcosteel®, Silcosteel®-CR, or Silcosteel®-UHV treated surfaces can be used under certain
conditions. Heat treatment of parts before applying a Silcosteel®, Silcosteel®-CR or Silcosteel®-UHV
coating extends the maximum temperature limit. Please contact technical support at (800)356-1688, ext. 4 for
additional information.
