  What Is Powder Coating?
To obtain the final solid, tough, abrasion resistant coating the powder coated items are placed in an oven and heated to temperatures that range from 160 to 210 degrees C (depending on the powder).
Powder coating produces a high specification coating which is relatively hard, abrasion resistant (depending on the specification) and tough.
