Vail Rubber Opens Surface Technology Center - Posted 8/29/07
The surface coating technology that NASA and the U.S. military use to make their landing and steering gears last longer is now available at Vail Rubber Works, Inc.’s new Surface Technology Center. The 12,000 sq. ft. facility, located in St. Joseph, MI, houses Vail’s thermal spray coating technologies, which reportedly can extend part reliability up to four-times longer than chrome plating, metalizing or spray welding.
