Industries and Applications for Type II Anodize Metal Finishing
Type II anodizing is one of the most utilized surface finishes for aluminum parts and components in many industries:
- Aerospace and aviation components and parts
- Automotive manufacturing, OEM parts, and aftermarket suppliers
- Consumer goods (e.g., appliances and electronics)
- Medical devices and surgical tools
- Industrial valves and mechanical systems
We meet rigorous production standards, including military specifications for defense applications. Our sulfuric acid anodizing adheres to MIL-PRF-8625 Type II Class 1 and Class 2 requirements. We offer ROHS-compliant and Nadcap-approved processing, and we’re also ITAR and Boeing certified.
Benefits of Sulfuric Acid Anodizing
One of the main reasons many industries and organizations choose type II anodizing is to avoid the use of chromium compounds (required for type I anodizing). Additionally, sulfuric acid anodizing offers several advantages:
- Thicker oxide layer
- Improved abrasion resistance and hardness
- Increased corrosion resistance
- Excellent electrical insulation
Custom Type II Anodizing Options
We adapt to the technical and aesthetic needs of your finished parts. Our color-anodized finishes are available in clear, black, gold, red, blue, and other colors. We also provide bright dip as a pre anodize process to produce a shiny surface.
