From type II anodizing on aerospace aluminum to ASTM B117 salt-spray-certified electroplating — complete surface treatment services that protect, enhance, and validate your parts.
What We Offer
We handle every major metal and plastic surface treatment in-house, with full traceability and process control documentation.
Type II (standard) and Type III (hard-coat) anodizing for aluminum. Clear, black, and custom colors available. Thickness 0.0002"–0.002" controlled. MIL-A-8625 compliant.
Electrostatic powder coating in 200+ RAL/Pantone colors with matte, gloss, and textured finishes. Steel, aluminum, and MDF. ASTM D3363 pencil hardness F–4H.
Zinc, nickel, chrome (decorative & hard), copper, and tin electroplating on steel, brass, and copper. RoHS-compliant trivalent chrome available.
Citric acid and nitric acid passivation of stainless steel per ASTM A967 and AMS 2700. Removes free iron, improves corrosion resistance. Certificate of conformance included.
Aluminum oxide, glass bead, and steel shot blasting for surface preparation, cleaning, deburring, and satin/matte texture finishing on metal and plastic parts.
Spray painting with epoxy primer, polyurethane topcoat, and specialty coatings. Masking for multi-color parts. Powder prime + liquid topcoat available for complex geometries.
Finish Selector
Match your substrate, environment, and aesthetic requirement to the right treatment with our quick reference guide.
Best for aluminum parts requiring corrosion resistance, controlled color, and electrical insulation without significant dimensional change.
For aluminum parts requiring extreme wear resistance and hardness (HRC 70+). Used in hydraulic pistons, cylinders, and high-wear sliding components.
Most economical corrosion protection for steel fasteners, brackets, and enclosures. ASTM B633 Type II clear or yellow chromate over zinc.
Electroless nickel for complex geometries with uniform deposit and excellent hardness. Bright nickel for decorative applications with RoHS compliance.
Durability and color flexibility for sheet metal and fabricated assemblies. Excellent impact resistance, UV stability, and 1000hr+ salt spray ratings.
Required for stainless steel medical devices, food-contact components, and any application requiring ASTM A967 / AMS 2700 compliance documentation.
Our Process
Whether you're sending bare parts or ordering finishing as part of a machining or fabrication job, our process is smooth and fully documented.
Ship bare parts or specify finishing at time of order. Provide drawing callout, specification standard, or describe your requirements — we advise the rest.
Parts are cleaned, degreased, and masked per your drawing. Threaded holes, mating surfaces, and critical dimensions are protected prior to processing.
Parts move through controlled process tanks or booths with documented bath chemistry, temperature, time, and current density parameters for every batch.
Coating thickness verified by XRF gauge or eddy current. Salt spray testing arranged on request. Certificate of conformance and material certs included.
Compatible Substrates
We process an extensive range of base metals and plastics — if your material isn't listed, contact us for a process feasibility review.
