Kigan Industry Co., Ltd.

Company Description

KIGAN has studied how the thermal friction generated betKigan Industry Co., Ltd.en the guide ring and line can be reduced, how the heat generated between the line and guide can be discharged quickly and how an ultra light guide ring can be made, for many years.

Currently, ceramics are the most proper material of the guide ring, and SiC among these has the most superior physical properties.

'KIGAN GOLD/SILVER RING', as TIN/TIC ultra hard ion coating that uses plasma in the parent material, SiC ring, improved every physical properties.

Ceramics are the materials of which general characteristics are greatly influenced by the properties of the surface.

Therefore, to grasp and control the properties of the surface of the ceramics is very important in adjusting the general properties and characteristics of the materials. Coating of the surface of the ceramics into the substance of the proper properties or understanding of the properties with thin-filmed ceramics are already established as an important field of the study of the ceramics and those are also the fields in which the most active researches are conducted.

Practically, TIN/TIC coating is a technology that is used every kind of wear resistance parts requiring extended life of the cutting tool, extended life of the press and injection molding, formation of protective film for PDP and high hardness and high dielectric constant.

KIGAN, since it applied this technology to the fishing rod guide in 1995 for the first time, has steadily researched and developed to improve property that is required by the fishing rod guide. With know how accumulated over many years, KIGAN have supplied the guide of elegant color that has more stable and improved physical property.
