Coating Technologies for Wire Drawing Components: Innovation and Performance
In the wire drawing industry, adopting cutting-edge coating technologies is essential to enhance wear resistance and optimize the performance of wire drawing machine parts.
Paganoni, a leader in this sector, offers a range of ceramic and metallic coatings designed to meet the specific demands of this industrial process.
Advanced Ceramic Coatings for Wire Drawing
Ceramic coatings are known for their high hardness and heat resistance, essential characteristics in the application of the wire drawing process.
Among Paganoni’s solutions, Kerblack® stands out as a chromium oxide-based coating. This material provides superior protection against wear and abrasion, ensuring greater durability for components such as dies and rollers. Thanks to its intrinsic properties, chromium oxide maintains stable performance even at high temperatures, reducing the risk of deformation and extending the service life of equipment.
Another significant innovation is Kersint®, a sintered material composed of zirconium oxides and rare minerals. This wear-resistant coating combines high hardness and mechanical strength, making it ideal for components exposed to intense stress. The use of Kersint® in capstans and pulleys reduces friction during wiredrawing, improving process efficiency and the quality of the final product.
Thanks to their superior characteristics, Paganoni’s ceramic coatings optimize the performance of key wire drawing machine parts, ensuring longer operational life, lower maintenance costs, and higher-quality metal processing.

Metallic Coatings for Specialized Applications
In addition to ceramic coatings, Paganoni provides metallic solutions such as Coldside®, a super-compact hard metal coating based on tungsten carbide.
This material is particularly suitable for anti-wear and anti-seizing applications in mechanical components used in the wire drawing process. Coldside®’s structure ensures high resistance to friction and wire slippage, making it ideal for capstans used in wire drawing continuous plating of high-strength steel wire. The application of this coating increases production speed while maintaining high product quality.
Another high-performance solution is Niksint®, a nickel-based coating designed for anti-wear applications. This material offers effective protection against corrosion and wear, extending the lifespan of components and reducing maintenance costs. Niksint® is particularly advantageous in aggressive operating environments, where mechanical parts are exposed to chemical and mechanical stress.
The metallic coatings developed by Paganoni provide an optimal combination of mechanical strength and wear protection, ensuring higher efficiency in the wire drawing process, reduced downtime, and improved equipment reliability.
The Benefits of Specialized Coatings in Wire Drawing
The application of specialized coatings on key wire drawing machine parts offers numerous advantages.
First, the wear resistance of coated components translates into longer operational life, reducing the frequency of replacements and, consequently, maintenance costs. Additionally, coatings like Kerblack® and Kersint® help keep operating temperatures low, thanks to their thermal properties, preventing deformations and ensuring consistent quality in the wire drawing process.
The use of coatings such as Coldside® and Niksint® improves production efficiency, allowing for higher operating speeds without compromising the integrity of components. This results in increased productivity and reduced downtime.
Furthermore, selecting the most suitable coating for each specific wire drawing application optimizes machine performance, delivering superior results in aluminum wire drawing and other metal processing.
