    Tecvac now offers a DLC (diamond-like carbon) coating process that coats internal bores, pipes, pump parts cylinders and tubes up to 3m long with a corrosion-resistant, very hard film, up to 50 microns thick. The coating is inert, biocompatible, environmentally friendly, and can reduce friction losses to very low levels.
