Aluminum Housing and Bearing Locknuts - Aluminum’s natural properties make it a great material for washdown applications. Unlike steel, aluminum will not corrode (rust) and wash away.  Aluminum will oxidize but during the oxidation process it actually forms a protective coating or skin on the surface of the component that resists further oxidation. 

Aluminum is also a good base material for application of other coating treatments.

Electroless Nickel Plating - provides a superior corrosive and wear resistant surface.  Nickel phosphorus alloy is uniformly deposited onto the metallic substrate creating a very durable surface and preventing the environment from reacting with the base metal.

Nickel Plating is available in varying degrees of thickness and is often used in the food processing and packaging industry.

Chromate conversion coating - provides protection from corrosion and wear. Application of the coating does not affect critical dimensions and allows the surface to be painted due to its good adhesion properties.

This process is often used in military applications where components need additional corrosion and wear protection, and need to be painted.

Electrostatic Powder Coating - is a solvent free method of bonding a strong protective and aesthetically appealing finish to metal components.  The coating is extremely durable and will often outlast paint and plating. 

This coating is often used in the food processing and packaging industry where a quality appearance and durability are needed
