Kephos is a phosphate coating with a tough black finish. This coating provides excellent resistance against chemical, impact, abrasion and corrosion environments. Kephos is superior in performance to black oxide, bluing, and phosphate.

The Kephos process is a phosphate coating with a tough black finish — all in a one step coating process. This thin film thickness of .0005" – .0007" provides excellent resistance against chemical, impact, abrasion and corrosion environments. Once properly cured, Kephos is unaffected by solvents, oil or cutting lubricants.

Kephos has now been replaced by Fosgard 109 Coating. This is a lightweight phosphate coating with excellent adhesion properties. It is a single or dual coat phosphate paint system that affords good resistance to chemical attack and is especially suited to environments where brake fluid and similar oils are present.

Upon discovering that Kephos was to be discontinued, Sandwell have been working with coating suppliers and manufacturers to source a suitable alternative. After thorough research and analysis this alternative has been found in Fosgard 109, a new …

Kephos is a phosphate coating with a tough black finish. This coating provides excellent resistance against chemical, impact, abrasion and corrosion environments. Kephos is superior in performance to black oxide, bluing, and phosphate. Kephos is also unafected by solvents, oil or cutting lubricants.

Since 1983, KECO has been supplying coating processes to the racing and high-performance industries. Processes include Kephos, dry film lubricant, thermal barrier, custom powder coatings, and Teflon®. Click here for Product Data Sheet.

The Kephos process is a phosphate coating with a tough black finish — all in a one step coating process. This thin film thickness (10um) provides excellent resistance against chemical, impact, abrasion and corrosion environments.

Paint Grip 253 (previously known as Kephos 253 or Paint Grip S1006), is a non aqueous, liquid chemical used undiluted (except for dip operations) to produce a corrosion-resisting, paint-bonding coating on steel.

Kephos is a low foam, highly alkaline cleaner designed for heavy duty cleaning and for stripping coatings from ferrous metals. Kephos strips most paint finishes and is highly effective for removing oil deposits, burned-on carbonized grease and light rust.
