Anodizing Services

We provide professional anodizing services for aluminum and aluminum alloy parts. Anodizing creates a dense oxide layer that significantly enhances corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and aesthetic appearance. With customizable finishes and colors, our anodizing service is widely applied in aerospace, automotive, electronics, machinery, and consumer goods industries.

What is Anodizing?

Anodizing is an electrochemical process that forms an oxide film on the surface of metals (mainly aluminum and its alloys). The porous oxide structure allows for dyeing and sealing, improving both protection and decorative properties.

Properly dyed and sealed anodized colors are durable, but long-term UV or chemical exposure may cause fading.

Yes, anodizing adds thickness (5–25 μm), so tolerances must be considered.

Hard anodizing produces thicker (25–150 μm), harder coatings (up to 600 HV), ideal for high-wear applications.

Anodizing forms an oxide layer on aluminum via electrochemical reaction, while electroplating deposits another metal layer. Anodized coatings are more corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly, and ideal for aluminum alloys.

Standard anodized layers are non-conductive. However, conductive anodizing processes can retain partial conductivity.

Since the anodized layer is hard, post-machining is difficult. All machining is recommended before anodizing.

Yes, we offer black, silver, red, blue, green, gold, purple, and custom dyeing options (depending on batch and alloy).

Yes, hard anodizing typically results in dark gray or black coatings, which are harder to dye compared to standard anodizing.

Yes, by chemical stripping, but it may affect the substrate, so it must be done carefully.
