Advanced Corrosion Protection for Every Fastener.
Whether the fastener industry is working with tiny nuts and bolts or heavy-duty steel screws, reliable corrosion protection is key. Metal components are frequently exposed to harsh environments and mechanical stress, making robust surface treatment essential.
As the inventor of zinc flake anti-corrosion coatings, NOF Metal Coatings Europe offers ultra-thin, high-performance solutions trusted by leading manufacturers across industries like automotive, trucks, railways, renewable energy, and steel construction.
Our coatings are applied exclusively by a global network of licensed applicators – all trained and certified by the NOF Metal Coatings Group to ensure consistent quality.
GEOMET® – Proven Corrosion Protection at Minimal Thickness.
GEOMET® is a water-based, non-electrolytic zinc flake coating designed to protect metal parts with low thickness and long durability. It consists of passivated zinc and aluminum flakes in an organo-mineral binder.
- Thin but tough: Protection at just 6–15 µm, applied in 1 to 3 layers
- Optimized flake geometry allows higher protection with less material
- Barrier effect to isolate the metal from corrosive environment
- Sacrificial protection to protect steel substrate
- Self-healing properties protect even after stone chipping or minor mechanical damage
- Excellent bimetallic compatibility with aluminum alloys
PLUS® Series – PFAS-Free Topcoats with Premium Friction Control.
Our PFAS-free PLUS® topcoats are engineered for performance and sustainability. Applied over GEOMET® basecoats, they meet all major OEM requirements while delivering exceptional tribological properties:
- PLUS® M 2 Silver / PLUS® M 2 Black : COF 0.12 – 0.18
- PLUS® ML 2 Silver / PLUS® ML 2 Black : COF 0.10 – 0.16
- PLUS® VLh 2 Silver / PLUS® VLh 2 Black : COF 0.09 – 0.14
- PLUS® XL 2 Silver / PLUS® XL 2 Black : COF 0.06 – 0.09
(All COF values per ISO 16047)
These silver PFAS-free topcoats can also achieve other properties:
- Multi-tightening and high-speed tightening
- Compatibility with aluminum, e-coat, zinc and steel substrates
- Stick slip prevention
- Behavior in loosening tests (including at high temperature – PLUS® VLh 2 Silver and PLUS® ML 2 Silver)
GEOBLACK® Systems – When Performance Meets Aesthetics.
Our GEOBLACK® systems combine silver GEOMET® 321 or graphite black GEOMET® 430 basecoats with
a range of black topcoats to deliver both high corrosion resistance and refined visual appearance.
- Thickness: 6–15 µm (1 to 3 layers)
- Available in matte or glossy black finishes
- Designed for demanding applications requiring aesthetic appeal and long-term durability
NOF Metal Coatings Europe works closely with its GEOMET®-licensed applicators in Europe to launch its new environmentally friendly technical solutions in the automotive and heavy-truck sectors. Our goal is to support the fastener industry in protecting their metal parts smarter, faster, and more sustainably.
