Passivation enhances the formation of a protective passive layer on stainless steel, maximizing the corrosion resistance inherent in the metal. Chemical passivation is a two-step process: 1. Our team uses acid to dissolve any free iron or iron compounds from the surface; otherwise, this iron will create a localized site where corrosion can continue. The surface itself is not affected by this process. 2. We use an oxidizer to force the conversion of chromium metal on the surface to the oxide form. This process creates a uniform oxide protective layer. Learn more about the passivation process at Global Metal Finishing: https://bit.ly/3HC4mH6 #stainlesssteelpassivation #metalfinishing

Want to minimize back and forth during the metal finishing quoting process? Be sure to provide as much information as possible when requesting a quote. This advice applies to any customer seeking metal finishing services, but it’s especially important for machine shops requesting these services on behalf of their customers. The longer the supply chain, the more opportunities there are for communication challenges to delay a project. If you’re unsure about what kind of information you should ask your customers to include, Global Metal Finishing is happy to share our recommendations. Check out the blog to learn 5 important details to include in a metal finishing quote: https://bit.ly/3qvjA9R #metalfinishing #anodizingservice

At GMF, we understand how critical security is for our customers. That's why we utilize fully ITAR-compliant quoting software, so aerospace and defense manufacturers can request a quote with confidence. Engineers can share their blueprints and models, knowing their files are stored securely within the platform. Furthermore, engineers maintain full control over the file and can turn off access when it is no longer needed. Learn more about the security, speed, and accuracy of our quoting process: https://bit.ly/30sSPcL #metalfinishingservices #ITARcompliant

When machine shops request our metal finishing services, they almost always ask the same question: "What coating thickness range can I expect from this process?" This information is especially crucial for components that must meet certain tolerance ranges or that will mate with other parts during assembly. We developed our coating thickness cheat sheet, a resource that helps engineers and machinists determine how coating thicknesses can impact their final dimension requirements, to make the process as easy and seamless as possible for our customers. Download our cheat sheet instantly to take the guesswork out of the equation: https://bit.ly/3jlkqU0 #metalfinishing #anodizedaluminum

Earning Nadcap accreditation is a rigorous, ongoing process that demands a high level of commitment, precision, and dedication to quality. Achieving this accreditation is no small feat – it took our team years of preparation, dedication, and hard work to reach this point. We had to build the necessary infrastructure, including specialized testing equipment, to ensure our processes met the rigorous criteria required for both chemical conversion and passivation.
