Cryogenic Treatment for Extended Wear

Cryogenic treatment for extended wear deeply cools metal components to improve their wear resistance and durability. This process refines the metal’s microstructure, enhancing hardness and performance, and is ideal for parts subject to extreme stress and abrasion.

Dry Film Lube

Dry film lubricant is a value-added coating that reduces friction and wear on metal surfaces without using wet lubricants. It forms a durable, solid layer, improving performance in high-temperature or high-load environments, and extending the lifespan of components.

Masking & Plugging - Laser & Taping

Masking and plugging are protective techniques used during surface treatments to shield specific areas from exposure. These methods ensure precise coverage, maintaining critical tolerances and preventing undesired effects on threaded holes, surfaces, or features, preserving the integrity of the components.

Cerakote

Cerakote is a high-performance ceramic-based coating that enhances the durability and corrosion resistance of surfaces. Applied to metals, plastics, and wood, it offers a tough, long-lasting finish available in various colors and patterns, improving both aesthetics and functionality for a wide range of applications.

Timesaver Sanding & Straight Lining

Straight-line sanding is a process used to refine, smooth, and prepare metal or other surfaces by removing material imperfections such as scratches, burrs, or uneven finishes. These methods employ abrasives, applied in either a broad stroke (timesaver sanding) or linear motion (straight-line sanding), to achieve consistent, high-quality surface finishes.

Descaling

Descaling removes rust, scale, and other contaminants from metal surfaces, enhancing cleanliness and preparing the material for further processing or coating. This technique improves adhesion, prevents corrosion, and ensures optimal performance and appearance of treated components.

Demagnetizing

Demagnetizing neutralizes residual magnetic fields in metal components, ensuring they don’t attract debris or interfere with sensitive equipment. This process is crucial for precision parts, improving functionality, safety, and compatibility in applications requiring non-magnetic properties.

Artificial Aging of castings and forgings

Artificial aging is a heat treatment process that strengthens and hardens cast metals, like aluminum alloys, by accelerating natural aging. Controlled heating promotes precipitation of elements, enhancing mechanical properties and ensuring durability for high-performance applications.
