Coating Options

Bead Blasting

Bead blasting uses fine glass beads or other abrasive media to create a smooth, matte finish on metal surfaces. It is commonly used to clean, polish, or prepare surfaces for additional coatings.

Anodising (type II)

Type II anodising forms a thin oxide layer on aluminum to improve corrosion resistance and add color. It is widely used for decorative finishes and light surface protection.

Hardcoat Anodising (type III)

Type III anodising, also known as hardcoat anodising, produces a thicker and more durable oxide layer than Type II, offering enhanced wear and corrosion resistance. It is often used in aerospace and industrial applications for parts that need extra protection.

Powder Coating

Powder coating applies a dry powder to a surface that is then heated to form a hard, durable layer. It provides excellent corrosion resistance, impact strength, and can be applied in various colors and textures.

Electropolishing

Electropolishing is an electrochemical process that removes a thin layer of metal to smooth and brighten surfaces, improving corrosion resistance and appearance. It is commonly used on stainless steel for medical, food, and high-precision applications.

Passivation

Passivation involves treating metal (typically stainless steel) with a mild oxidizing acid to remove contaminants and enhance its corrosion resistance. The process forms a thin protective oxide layer, improving durability in corrosive environments.

Zinc Coating / Galvanising

Zinc coating, or galvanising, applies a protective zinc layer to steel or iron to prevent rust and corrosion. It is commonly used for outdoor structures, fasteners, and automotive parts.

Electroless Nickel Plating

Electroless nickel plating deposits a uniform nickel-phosphorus alloy coating on a substrate without the use of electricity, providing excellent corrosion resistance and wear protection. It is commonly used for components with complex shapes and for applications requiring precise, consistent coverage.

Black Oxide

Black oxide is a chemical conversion coating that provides mild corrosion resistance and a black finish, primarily for steel and stainless steel. It improves appearance and minimizes light reflection while offering a protective layer.

Annealing

Annealing is a heat treatment process that softens metals by heating and then slowly cooling them, improving their ductility and reducing internal stresses. It is used to enhance the machinability and workability of metals like steel, copper, and aluminium.

Tempering

Tempering is a heat treatment that follows quenching to reduce the brittleness of hardened steel while maintaining strength. It is used to improve toughness and durability in tools and structural components.

Case Hardening

Case hardening involves hardening the outer surface of a metal part while keeping the inner core soft, providing wear resistance while maintaining toughness. It is often used for gears, shafts, and other high-wear mechanical components.

Review: Sheet Metal

Sheet metal fabrication is the process of transforming flat metal sheets, typically ranging from 0.15 mm to 10 mm in thickness, into parts and structures of various shapes. This process uses flat metal sheets as the raw material and is commonly applied to create items like enclosures, chassis, brackets, stamped features, and decorative patterns in metal.
