Surface Finishes
Surface treatments enhance the durability and functionality of products by providing added resistance to wear, corrosion, and environmental factors. They also improve aesthetic appeal and can significantly extend the product’s lifespan.
Exploring Surface Treatment Options
We offer upwards of 15 surface treatments. It covers techniques to improve durability, abrasion and corrosion resistance as well as aesthetics.
Nickel plating involves coating objects with a layer of nickel to improve their corrosion resistance, hardness, and to provide a shiny or matte finish.
Nickel Plating
Zinc plating applies a zinc coating to metal surfaces to offer enhanced corrosion resistance, while also improving durability and appearance.
Zinc Plating
Chromium plating is a process of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object, providing a durable, corrosion-resistant finish with a high shine.
Chromium Plating
"As machined" refers to a finish where the surface of a part is left in its natural state post-machining, without any additional surface treatments or finishes applied.
As Machined
Black oxide is a chemical treatment that provides a matte black finish to metal parts, offering mild corrosion resistance and reduced light reflection.
Black oxide
Painting is the application of a pigment or color to a surface, providing both aesthetic enhancement and protective benefits to the material.
Painting
Powder coating is a dry finishing process that applies a durable, protective, and decorative layer of powder to surfaces, offering superior resistance to chipping, scratching, and corrosion.
Powder coating
Anodizing is an electrochemical process that enhances metal parts' corrosion and wear resistance, also allowing for color customization.
Anodizing
Polishing is a finishing process that smooths surfaces to a high shine, reducing roughness and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the material.
Polishing
Bead blasting is a surface finishing technique where small glass beads are propelled at high velocity against a material to create a uniform, matte, or satin finish.
Bead Blasting
Brushed finishing involves using abrasive techniques to create a unidirectional satin finish, reducing the appearance of marks and adding texture to the surface.
