RE: Coating Rod Basics

Are there any processes that would be contaminated by the use of a
stainless-steel rod? So many of the formulas I've been reading warn about
contamination from iron in the water, etc. I've been wondering if these
wire-wound coating rods would work, since the way they're designed to
provide an even coating makes a lot of sense to me.

Stainless steel coating rods come in various sizes of length and diameter.
They are wound with wire to provide even coating and a smooth flow of liquid
over a surface such as paper.

Here is web site providing prices and sizes.
