Machined part with chromate conversion

 

Benefits of Chromate Conversion

  • Helps prevent corrosion

  • Retains conductive properties of aluminium.

  • Good basis for paint

Chromate Conversion coating is a type of conversion coating used to passivate aluminium alloys.
It is primarily used as a corrosion inhibitor, primer, decorative finish, or to retain electrical conductivity

  • Surtec 650 - is a hexavalent chromium free passivation for aluminium, suitable for alloyed and cast aluminium. It is also used as a pretreatment before lacquering, powder coating and gluing. Electrically it has a low contact resistance and good electrical conductivity.

We offer

  • Flexible solution across multiple geometries
  • Single source partner to get finished parts shipped in days
  • Typical lead times of 5+ business days

Types

Materials

  • Aluminium 6082, 7075 and 2024
