Dura-Bright® EVO
Breakthrough Technology
On most aluminium wheels, a coating is typically a layer of baked powder that sits on top of the wheel surface. When scratched, water and salt will penetrate the coating, resulting in corrosion and further deterioration. Dura-Bright® ALCOA® WHEELS have a proprietary treatment that penetrates the aluminium and becomes an integral part of the wheel. It will not chip, crack, peel or corrode, like conventional coatings do.
What happens on the road, stays on the road
There is no easier wheel to maintain than a Dura-Bright® wheel. Thanks to the patented surface treatment the wheels will look bright and shiny for years without polishing.
Dura-Bright® wheels can simply be cleaned with a mild detergent or undiluted Dura-Bright® Wheel Wash.

Dura-Bright®
Dura-Bright® is not a coating, but a surface treatment that penetrates the aluminium and becomes an integral part of the wheel. It will not chip, crack, peel or corrode, like conventional coatings do. Regular cleaning with a mild detergent or undiluted Dura-Bright® Wheel Wash will keep the wheels shiny, even after hundreds of washes and thousands of kilometres, reducing maintenance costs.
Dura-Flange®
The Dura-Flange® treatment provides a protective shield to reduce rim flange wear, giving them up to double the lifetime compared to other aluminium wheels under the same conditions. Dura-Flange® is commonly used in transport where loads are heavy and prone to shifting, causing the tyre bead to rub against the wheel flange.
