South West Metal Finishing offers Zinc Nickel to Airbus Specification AIPS-02-04-006 as well as AMS 2417 and many other specifications.
South West Metal Finishing offers four different processes, which should be chosen depending on the requirements of the coating.
We have worked with companies from a wide range of sectors and have obtained many company approvals and accreditations.
The Zinc Nickel process offers a coating that is used in the protection of steel, copper, and brass alloys. Zinc Nickel is widely recognized as an environmentally safe alternative to cadmium and in certain applications, demonstrates equivalent, or better, corrosion properties compared to cadmium.
Zinc-Nickel functions as a “sacrificial coating”, corroding before the base material, and can also replace cadmium in a galvanic interaction where the coating is intended to minimize corrosion caused by dissimilar metals.
South West Metal Finishing offers RoHS compliant trivalent Clear and Hexavalent colour post plate treatments for enhanced corrosion protection, and also specific torque-tension applications.
