Automatic Anodizing is a committed provider of industrial-strength coating and anodizing services. A specialist in working with precision small parts, we offer a higher level of service than our competition, paying attention to the customer’s every design and scheduling need. Our chemical/chromate conversion coating service is able to add corrosion resistance and a primed surface to aluminum parts in a fast and high quality manner.

This coating process, which is Mil-C-5541 Type I and II compliant, functions through the immersion of parts into a rack or barrel acid chamber. Parts are then air-dry cured and tested to ensure acceptable quality. Clear or yellow coatings are possible on parts ¼” to 10′ in size. Post-processing can add PTFE, grit blasted surfaces, or custom masking as needed.

Singular or large runs of products can be processed by this cutting-edge coating approach. Anodization takes place within an ISO 9001:2008 facility and is also RoHS compliant.
