Hard anodized aluminum.

It becomes even more resistant to abrasion and corrosion.

In applications where glass or porcelain would not have the strength or wear resistance to be a suitable substrate hard anodized aluminum is an excellent alternative. While all anodized aluminum has been treated to halt oxidation hard anodized aluminum takes it a step further.

To prepare aluminum for anodizing the surface is first thoroughly cleaned and rinsed and then placed into a bath of some electrolytic solution like sulfuric acid. An electrolyte is an electrically conductive solution with lots of positive and negative ions that it wants to swap. Tie one end of the long aluminum wire to your anode. For over 65 years we have been providing high quality chemical aluminum surface processing.

The process of anodizing the metal uses higher voltage and lower temperatures creating an even harder and more durable coating on the metal. As a result this style of anodizing is also referred to as type iii or hard coat. It penetrates the parts surface and it builds up the layer on the parts surface and it builds up a layer on the parts surface approximately 001 to 006. Rapid anodizing inc takes pride in their reputation as a leader in the anodizing industry.

If your anodizing a key for example you may wrap the wire around the join between the blade and the bow. Hard anodized aluminum is widely used for its dielectric effect and is an electrical insulator comparable to glass or porcelain. However hard anodizing is commonly performed clear or with a black dyed finish though some prefer the aluminum dyed different colors for aesthetic purposes. Hard anodized aluminum has been treated in a similar manner except the electrical current is substantially higher and the temperature of the solution is lowered to 32 f 0 c.

Hard coat aluminum anodizing type iii to achieve greater corrosion protection for use in extreme environments or with moving mechanical parts the aluminum anodizing process can exceed depths 10 microns. Wrap it or connect it to the part in an inconspicuous area. Anodize color anodizing hard anodize cleaning passivation chem film. 12 gauge aluminum wire works well for this use.

Anodized aluminum is aluminum that has been treated with a sulfuric acid bath while a low voltage current runs through the solution. Depending on the process the solution may also contain oxalic acid.
