PALM CITY, FLORIDA

UCT Coatings, Inc., established in 2000 and headquartered in Palm City, Florida, is a pioneer in the surface engineering industry. The company specializes in developing and applying innovative coating technologies that enhance the performance and longevity of metal parts. UCT gained recognition for their proprietary EXO technology—a unique formulation of nickel boron offering unparalleled hardness and lubricity—which they patented in the early 1990s. The company provides both traditional plating products and advanced surface treatments, ensuring each application achieves superior precision, uniformity, and consistency. Their diverse capabilities are validated through a series of quality certifications along with governmental and third-party approvals. Beyond coating applications, UCT Coatings serves as an advisory partner for its clients, offering expert insights in engineering and metallurgy to optimize component performance. Recognizing the environmental responsibilities inherent in manufacturing processes, UCT Coatings emphasizes sustainable practices and high standards of safety within their operational framework. UCT's services include autocatalytic nickel boron (Ni-B) coatings known for complete coverage without the need for final matching and achieving optimized levels of boron content. These coatings are applied using a proprietary chemical bath process that ensures uniform thickness even in intricate component designs, accommodating various part sizes through scalable automated systems. The Ni3B microstructure attained post-processing significantly increases hardness and performance. In addition to their renowned EXO plating, UCT Coatings also offers nickel phosphorous (Ni-P) coating solutions tailored to meet diverse industrial requirements. Collaboration with clients is key throughout the application development process to ensure that outcomes align perfectly with specific needs. UCT Coatings remains committed to fostering a workforce aligned with its values of service, innovation, and excellence while actively contributing to local business and community development efforts.
