Description of Eclipse Nonstick Coating (fry pans only):
Eclipse is a three-coat, internally-reinforced nonstick system engineered to outlast other internally reinforced coatings. The basecoat contains a carefully chosen and blended combination of resins and unusually hard materials, permitting a far higher percentage of special reinforcing elements than normal. The midcoat also contains the special reinforcing elements, while the topcoat is rich in fluoropolymers, and is dedicated entirely to "release" (the nonstick characteristic). The Kinetic 25-year limited warranty includes coverage of the nonstick coating on the fry pans.
