Fortech Products is a global manufacturer of TechKote, a series of low-VOC, water-based, high-heat, corrosion-resistant coatings, as well as its TechDraw forming lubricants, TechKool metalworking lubricants, TechKleen industrial cleaners, and TechPro rust preventives, holding various OEM approvals.
Fortech is a leading automotive industry supplier of rear axle, propshaft, power steering pump, engine pulley and damper coatings with their TechKote WA 2951 F/FE series followed by the next-generation TechKote WA FEX corrosion-resistant coatings. Fortech has since expanded its industry capabilities, moving into the commercial truck, and off-highway agricultural industries, supplying TechKote (WA 2975 R) water-based, extreme chip-resistant coatings, TechKote WB 2804D steel structural joist primer, as well as the TechKote WB 2525 series for OCTG pipe coatings. These products are fortified with superior adhesion properties that may be applied over bare steel with less-than-ideal surface preparation.
Notes: In 2023, Fortech expanded even further from the auto, commercial truck, off-highway agricultural industries, extreme chip-resistant coatings, steel structural joist primer, and OCTG pipe coatings to include the TechKote WB 2700 series for the rail car industry and the TechGrip pedestrian anti-slip product line.
In January 2023, Fortech announced that its new laboratory and updated research center was fully operational. The new state-of-the-art facility provides abundant working space for the company’s Product Development Team to maximize their talents and collaborate in cutting-edge exploration in the Lubrication and Coating Departments.
