Xylan 1424 Coating on Downhole Tools

Protecting What Goes Deep

At IA Coatings, we understand that performance coatings aren’t just about looks—they’re about survival in extreme environments. The downhole tools pictured above were recently coated in Xylan 1424 Blue, one of the most trusted fluoropolymer coatings for demanding industrial applications.

These precision-machined components are headed deep into oil and gas wells, where high temperatures, corrosive fluids, and abrasive contact are everyday hazards. Our job? To make sure the coating isn’t the weak link—it’s the frontline defense.

Why Xylan 1424 for Downhole?

Xylan 1424 is a high-performance coating engineered for harsh-duty applications:

  • Corrosion Resistance: Offers exceptional protection in H2S, saltwater, and chemical environments common in downhole operations.

  • Low Friction: Reduces torque and wear during assembly and deployment, helping extend tool life and reliability.

  • Thermal Stability: Performs in operating temps up to 500°F (260°C).

  • Chemical Resistance: Protects against oils, solvents, fuels, and drilling fluids.

  • Adhesion & Coverage: Bonds well to steel substrates and applies with consistent, even coverage.

Our controlled coating and curing process ensures uniform thickness, critical thread protection, and a durable finish that holds up even when the pressure’s on—literally.

Trusted by Energy Sector Operators

These downhole components are part of a recurring order for a long-time oilfield service client. Their confidence in IA Coatings is built on years of results: fewer failures, smoother operations, and better lifecycle economics.

Whether it’s Xylan, Molykote, or custom-engineered coatings, our industrial coatings division delivers quality and precision—backed by strict QA and a team that knows oilfield challenges inside and out.

Industrial Coatings Built for the Downhole

We coat more than parts—we coat problems with performance. If your operation depends on components that go deep, spin hard, or face the elements, IA Coatings has a solution that holds up under pressure.
