METALAST R&D Presents Latest TECHSpec™ |
| METALAST, the leading innovator in technology, research, and process support to the aluminum anodizing industry, has completed research on their latest TECHSpec, "Depth Profile of Wear Resistance in Hard Anodic Coatings."
The study shows that the anodic coatings produced on 2024-T3, 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 with the METALAST MLT-III process (hardcoat) showed virtually constant wear resistance in the depth profiles. This finding suggests that the anodic coatings produced with the MLT-III process are very homogeneous and uniform in structure and composition. The wear resistance of the coatings formed on 6061-T6 and 7075-T6 is superior to the best result from the Martin Hard Coat process, and those of hard chrome plating and 4130 steel. METALAST TECHSpecs are technical data sheets describing the performance capabilities of anodized surfaces using the METALAST Technology. All TECHSpecs are supported by scientific analysis and research. TECHSpecs are available by request. METALAST International, Inc. offers a complete technology to the aluminum anodizing industry through a growing national network of METALAST licensed job shops and captive manufacturing facilities. The technology includes: advanced chemistry, computer process control, research and development, education, training and technical support services. The METALAST Tech Center is the world’s only research facility dedicated to aluminum anodizing and is located in Minden, Nevada near Reno/Lake Tahoe.
