Materials for High-Vacuum Thin Film Coatings


Coat knobs, handles, mirrors, and other objects with a micron-thin, decorative finish. 99.999% or 99.88% elementally pure, these metals vaporize when heated with low-voltage current inside a high-vacuum environment. The material then coats the object one atom at a time. Also known as physical vapor deposition (PVD), this process allows for super-thin coatings that are more consistent, wear resistant, and corrosion resistant than coatings created through other methods. Hold and heat the material in a material holder.
All materials will coat metal and plastic with a silvery-white color. Aluminum has a dull appearance. Nickel has a slightly shiny appearance and adds wear resistance to your part. Silver has a shiny appearance and adds corrosion resistance.
