Chromate Conversion Coatings

We offer two colours (or passivates/chromates) namely silver (also known as “clear” or “blue”) and gold (iridescent yellow).

Nitric based silver passivation  is normally used on moving parts and enclosed components.

Gold passivation is recommended for harsh environments and electronic components. We also recommend gold when parts are to be powder coated.
