RST Coatings
Why Are Rubber Surgery Tools So Effective?
Rubberhog tools work so well because of their innovative brazed-on 'SSG' and 'MCM' coatings. These coatings are made up of very sharp, cone-like structures, with open space between the teeth. Unlike the irregular surfaces of conventional abrasive grains, SSG and MCM teeth are uniform in sharpness and height.
The combination of sharpness, uniformity, and open structure of SSG and MCM coatings provides several key benefits:
- Rubberhog tools cut quickly and easily, with little heat generation.
- The surface produced by a Rubberhog tools is a better surface area, finely-roughened and scorch-free.
- A better quality surface produces a stronger and more reliable bond.
- Rubberhog tools have a service life that is many times that of lesser alternatives.
