2、tal substrates to form a continuous, durable coating for purposes such as wear resistance or squeak prevention. The powders may be applied by electrostatic spray, fluidized bed, or a variation thereof. 1.1 Material Description. Five (5) types are covered by this specification, as follows: Type I: A

3、thick epoxy coating for usages such as seat belt anchor plates, to provide corrosion resistance and prevent metal edges from cutting the webbing. Type II: A thinner epoxy coating used on various seat parts and other parts where prevention of metal-to-metal contact is required and where some degree o

4、f wear resistance is necessary. Type III: A thick nylon 11 or nylon 12 coating used on parts which are susceptible to high wear, to prevent squeaks, or to provide a thermal barrier. Type IV: A thinner nylon 11 or nylon 12 coating. Type V: A polyester coating for usages such as seat tracks, where som

5、e degree of wear resistance is necessary. Note: Some nylons must use a primer to meet the performance requirements of this specification. 1.2 Symbols. Suffix codes are to be added to the drawing notes to indicate location on the vehicle and if the coating is exposed to sunlight: Exterior (EX) = Exte

6、rior applications - includes underhood and underbody. Interior (IN) = Interior applications. Ultraviolet (UV) = Applications exposed to sunlight whether interior or exterior. 1.3 Typical Applications. These coatings are typically used for corrosion resistance, seat belt anchor plates, prevention of

7、metal-to-metal contact such as on seat parts, protection from wear, etc. Note: Epoxies should not be used in applications where they are exposed to sunlight. 1.4 Remarks.
