Hardcoat Finishes
About:
- Hardcoat anodizing produces superior hardness and density
- Hardcoat aluminum wears better than hardened steels
- Hardcoat anodizing may be provided in target thicknesses ranging from 0.5 mils to 3.0 mils (depending on alloy). Hardcoating changes the dimensions of the basic part, however, unlike plating only half of the hardcoat is buildup and the other half is penetration.
Colors:
- Clear or Black
The final appearance of a hardcoated surface depends on the alloy and the thickness of the coating.
Added Benefits:
- Can add Teflon
- Thickness control
- Corrosion resistance
- Hardness & wear resistance
- Electrical resistance
- Temperature resistance low friction coefficient after lubrication
- Can be processed to target dimensions
Applications:
- Automotive
- Aviation & Aerospace
- Any item requiring superior abrasion resistance
- Military
Bright Dip Anodizing
Applications:
- Decorative trim parts
- Lighting fixtures
- Automotive trim
About:
- Bright Dip anodizing achieves a highly reflective finish similar to the quality of plating. In contrast to plating, Bright Dip is a chemical process that brightens aluminum and does not leave deposits on the surface of the part. The degree of brightness is dependent on the type of alloy as well as the surface finish of the parts.With some alloys it is possible to get a reflective mirror-type finish.
Colors:
- Clear or Black
Added Benefits:
- Enhances the brightness
- Improves visual appeal
- When followed with clear anodizing, protects aluminum from corrosion, scratching & fading
Electrolytic 2-Step Anodizing
About:
- This is an anodizing and coloring of aluminum. After anodizing is complete the parts are immersed in a coloring tank to achieve a variety of colors. Color intensity is achieved by immersion time in a bath containing an inorganic metal solution.
Colors:
- Black and all shades from Champagne to Dark Bronze
Added Benefits:
- Enhances the aesthetic qualities of a part
- Superior light fastness (outdoor fade resistant, UV resistant)
Applications:
- Architectural Industry
- All Products Subject to Long Term Outdoor Exposure
- Automotive Trim
- Military
- Medical
