Protective Coatings, Inc. was founded in 1958 in Fort Wayne, Indiana as a tank lining applicator. The lining business historically has been one of fluctuating volume. With these fluctuations in mind, we determined that it would be wise to diversify into related business areas. This diversification has permitted us to develop a highly skilled and stable work force ready to react to our customers lead time requirements.

Service - Proco desires to be a company that serves and contributes to the welfare of our customers through not only our products but with our labor working safely in outside environments.

Rubber to metal bonding involves the proper surface preparation of the metal. The first step is to remove any oils or other contaminants from the surface of the metal that could inhibit the bonding process. The metal is then grit blasted or acid etched to create the proper anchor pattern for the adhesive layer to grab onto. The metal is coated with the proper adhesive system to asssure the rubber compound which meets the engineered needs of your part will properly adhere when compression molded.
