Duranar high-performance fluoropolymer coil and extrusion coatings are designed to provide outstanding aesthetics and durability in a wide range of architectural uses under normal environmental conditions. The coatings combine PPG proprietary resin and pigment technologies, with 70% of the resin system consisting of Kynar 500® or Hylar 5000® base resins.

Duranar coil and extrusion coatings exceed the industry’s toughest performance specifications, including AAMA 2605. The coatings are chemically inert, providing outstanding resistance against color and gloss fade as well as environmental stress such as acid rain and ultraviolet attack.

Duranar coil coatings are roll-coated and oven-cured on automated paint lines and are approved for use on properly cleaned and treated aluminum and coated steel substrates such as G90 hot dip galvanized, Galfan®, Galvalume® and Zincalume®. Coil-coated end-use products include roofing panels, siding, column covers, gutters, downspouts, soffit, fascia and trim. Duranar coil coatings are applied at a very consistent dry film thickness, which offer flexibility for post-formed applications and long-term durability.

Duranar extrusion coatings are spray-applied and oven-cured on automated paint lines and are used to coat aluminum extrusions and other pre-formed aluminum components. Spray-coated end-use products include window frames, louvers, skylights, curtainwalls and storefronts. Final color approval should be made from actual production line samples, not laboratory-prepared samples. Range samples should be requested from the applicator for metallic and mica-containing colors, as well as for bright whites.
