Hardcoat Anodizing

Type III Hardcoat Anodizing for aluminum is a process similar to Type II Anodizing, but provides a more corrosion resistant, thicker anodic coating to the aluminum that is also wear and abrasion resistant. There are multiple colors to choose from and masking is available as well. This process is RoHS compliant.

A PTFE (Teflon®) coating is available for aluminum anodizing. Our PTFE coating provides a wide range of advantages including hardness, dry-film lubricity, release (non-sticking), and corrosion protection. The part can either be fully submerged into the PTFE solution or can be brushed onto areas specifically requested.
