DANBURY, Conn. - Praxair Surface Technologies (PST) has been awarded a contract by Rolls-Royce. Over the 10-year contract, PST will apply its Tribomet abrasive coatings to rotating components in jet engines of widebody aircraft. The firm said that the coatings help prevent frictional heating, increase fuel efficiency, and extend component life. The project is to begin in mid-2017, and will be serviced from PST's coating operations in Indianapolis in the U.S. and Weston-super-Mare in the U.K.

The contract supports coating operations for Rolls-Royce Crosspointe, a facility located near Richmond, Virginia, that manufactures components for the Trent engine family.
