Fact
HPC’s Exhaust coatings have revolutionised the header industry. Our coatings are unmatched for protection against rust, cracking and burn through.

HiPerCoat™

• The original ceramic header coating
  
• Superior corrosion protection; self-sacrificial quality will not allow corrosion to develop even when damaged
  
• Guarantees against subsurface rust and corrosion
  
• Performance gains from increased exhaust velocity, improved airflow and reduced ambient under hood temperature
  
• Rapid cool-down
  
• Weldable
  
• Colour availability
  
• Will not blue or stain
  
• Eliminates thermal fatigue and oxidation
  
• Excellent abrasion resistance
  
• Protection at temperatures of –190°C to 700°C
  
• Can be applied to both new and used components

HiPerCoat’s™ inorganic matrix provides greater protection, avoids the staining or bluing characteristics found with chrome and stainless.

This unique ceramic-aluminium coating process reduces ambient under hood temperature while increasing horsepower. Performance benefits can be attributed to: combustion chamber stabilization and reduced under hood temperature; improved air density; increased gas velocity due to the heat retaining properties of the coating; and better laminar air flow due to the elimination of oxide scale on the header’s inside diameter.

Unlike Exhaust wrap HiPerCoat™ is bonded to the part, protecting it from high temperature corrosion. HiPerCoat™ will not absorb moisture. It is coated inside and out and is recoatable.

To keep your HiPerCoat™ polished aluminium finish looking brand new HPC has developed Liquid Buff™ Polish. This specially formulated product will keep a ‘like new’ shine to your coated components.

Thermal Fatigue

Often mistaken for rust, thermal fatigue/oxidation is a problem caused by cyclical temperatures and hot gas impingement. HiPerCoat™ retards oxidation and heat build up even at temperatures of over 1,600°F ( 871°C). Bonded on to steel, it extends component survivability by over 100 times.

Corrosion Protection

Field performance proven HiPerCoat™ has the unique ability to protect components against corrosion even when the coating is damaged. It was the first coating of its kind in the automotive industry and remains unsurpassed in quality.

Applications - Who Benefits

HiPerCoat™ would be used by anyone who has a set of headers, manifolds or extractors on their car, bike or truck.
Applications include:

• Drag Racing – import and V8
• Circuit Racing – any car or bike class that allows exhaust coatings
• Classic Car Restoration
• Hot Rodding
• Go Karts
• Jet Ski
• Jet Boat
• Vintage Cars
• Inboard Engined Boats
• Hybrids
• Any vehicle that the owner wants to personalise

For turbo charged, super charged, rotary or other applications where component temperature will exceed 1300°F (700°C) for continuous periods we recommend our HiPerCoat Extreme™ coating.

HiPerCoat™ is a must for any parts on a Car/Boat/Bike that need detailing to give that professional finishing touch to them. See Appearance & Decorative for examples.
