FOR ALL YOUR ENGINEERING NEEDS

 WE OFFER SOLUTIONS TO YOUR PRODUCTION PROBLEM.

HARD ANODIZE
Color will vary from light tan to black depending on alloy and thickness.
Coating PENETRATES base metal as much as builds up on the surface.
The term THICKNESS Includes both the buildup and penetration. 
Provides very hard ceramic type coating. Abrasion resistance will vary with alloy and thickness of coating. Good dielectric properties.
Corrosion resistance is good, but recommend seal hard anodize In 5% dichromate solution where increased corrosion resistance is required. 
Where extreme abrasion resistance is required do not seal as some softening is encountered. 

SOLUTION
SULFURIC ANODIZE
Color will vary with alloy. Aluminum with low alloying elements will show
practically no color change. Best coating on aluminum for dyeing. 
Can be dyed practically any color or shade (Black, blue, red, etc.). Salt spray
requirement is 336 hours 5% solution per method 811 of FED-STD-No. 151.
Minimum weight for Type 11 coatings: Class 1 600 Milligrams/sq. it, Class 2
2500 Milligrams/sq. ft. 
CHROMIC ANODIZE
Color will varyfrom light gray to dark gray depending on alloy. Not as readily
dyed as sulfuric anodize. New salt spray requirement is 336 hours (5%
solution per method 811 of FED-STD-No. 151). 
Minimum weight for Type 1 coatings: Class 1 200 Miligrams/sq. ft. Class 2 500 Miligrams/sq. ft. Because of thinness will scratch easily. Can be used for inspection of aluminum forgings or castings by noting evidence of chromic acid bleed out from lap, cracks, seams, etc.,
