We provide and deliver our services in house to ensure optimal quality and control #PortsmouthAviation #MetalFinishing #Innovation #Engineering

Chromate conversion (Alocrom) is a non-electrolytic process which forms a protective iridescent coloured chromate coating on aluminium and its alloys. It works as a great adhesive pre-treatment for painted products. #ChromateConversion #PortsmouthAviation #Innovation

Whether its Tin, Zinc or Zinc‑Nickel these processes deposit a sacrificial layer onto to the piece part, which forms a barrier between the surface of the piece part and the corrosive environment. #MetalFinishing #PortsmouthAviation #Innovation

Anodising is an electrolytic process that converts the surface of the aluminium substrate with a protective oxide layer, increasing corrosion resistance and wear resistance. It also enhances adhesion for paint primers and glues. #PortsmouthAviation #Anodising

Metal finishing has the power to enhance the performance, durability, and protection of the components we produce, enabling our process technicians to create reliable and long lasting coatings that can withstand challenging environments and operational demands #MetalFinishing

At Portsmouth Aviation we pride ourselves in producing a high standard of Metal Finishing processes for over 60 years. This is ranging from Electroplating to Chemical Conversions and many more in between. #PortsmouthAviation #Engineering #Innovation

Metal finishing is the application of various coatings to enhance the performance, corrosive protection and appearance of metals and aluminium alloys. #PortsmouthAviation #MetalFinishing #Engineering
