Surface Treatment

Surface Treatment Processes

Phosphate Coating

Typically, a phosphate coating is acquired by administering a weak solution of phosphoric acid, potentially including soluble iron, zinc, and/or manganese salts, to the steel component.

Electropolishing

Eletropolishing involves an electrochemical procedure that eliminates material from a metallic workpiece, smoothes metal surfaces, and reduces roughness.

Type II & Type III Hardcoat Anodizing (With Colour)

Type II anodizing creates a protective oxide layer on aluminum, ideal for vibrant dyeing and corrosion resistance, while Type III anodizing offers a thicker, more durable coating with superior resistance to abrasion and thermal shock, albeit at a higher cost and lower application temperature.

Passivation

Chemical treatment improves stainless steel corrosion resistance, Chromate Conversion - Protects steel, aluminum, and zinc alloys from corrosion, improves paint and adhesive adhesion, adds a decorative finish, preserves electrical conductivity, and offers resistance to abrasion and light chemicals.

Electroless Nickel Plate

A chemical method that coats a solid substrate, such as metal or plastic, with a uniform layer of nickel-phosphorus alloy through immersion in a water solution with nickel salt and a phosphorus-containing reducing agent.

Powder Coating

Powder coating is a dry, electrostatically applied coating cured with heat or UV light, often made of thermoplastic or thermoset polymer, to achieve a durable finish tougher than regular paint.

Galvanizing
This coating imparts protective qualities on metal parts against corrosion.
‍
Phosphate Coating
‍Typically, a phosphate coating is acquired by administering a weak solution of phosphoric acid, potentially including soluble iron, zinc, and/or manganese salts, to the steel component.
‍
Zinc Plating
Zinc layer prevents rust by electronically applying it to metal.
‍
Chromate Conversion
Protects steel, aluminum, and zinc alloys from corrosion, improves paint and adhesive adhesion, adds a decorative finish, preserves electrical conductivity, and offers resistance to abrasion and light chemicals.
‍
Black Oxide
A type of conversion coating applied to various materials like ferrous metals, stainless steel, copper, and zinc to enhance corrosion resistance, appearance, and reduce light reflection.
‍
Painting
Spraying paint onto parts enhances aesthetics, offers brand customization and provides protective benefits by preventing oxidation and corrosion.
‍
Sandblasting
Also called abrasive blasting, involves using compressed air to propel abrasive particles at high speeds against a surface for smoothing, cleaning, or shaping purposes.
‍
Silkscreen Printing
Silkscreen is an advanced stenciling method that uses stencils to apply paint or ink through cutouts onto surfaces, offering a versatile method for creating designs.
