Industrial Finishes

Finishes We Offer:  Zinc & Zinc-Nickel Plating, Aluminum Chromating

Plating specifications aren't always clear. Whether you're comparing different types of zinc chromates, evaluating zinc-nickel for higher protection, or reviewing an aluminum chromate specification, we can help interpret your requirements to ensure the finish is applied correctly. 

From small stampings to large electronic enclosures, we handle a wide range of components with the same attention to detail.

Finish Specifications Aren't Always Clear, We Can Help

Whether you're working from a manufacturer specification or questioning the right finish for your part, our team can help.

We work with standards like ASTM B633, B849, and MIL-DL-5541 daily, translating them into plating details like chromate type, thickness range, handling needs, and performance expectations.

If information is missing or unclear, we'll help you confirm the requirements up front so parts are processed correctly and perform as intended.
