Design feedback before production
We review tool access, geometry and material choice before manufacturing.
Overview
Passivation is a chemical reaction. It can delay the corrosion rate of metal materials and effectively increase the service life of the product.
How Aria supports your project
Inspection to your drawing
Dimensional checks and inspection reports for the critical features on your drawing.
A schedule for your order
Tooling, finishing and inspection included in your delivery schedule.
Compatible manufacturing processes
Selection requirements
- CNC Milling Services · Sheet metal fabrication · Precision CNC machining · CNC turning · EDM machining
Finish must also be compatible with the selected base material; allow for preparation, masking and dimensional changes.
Compatible materials
Selection requirements
- Titanium
Control chip ignition hazards and thin-wall deflection. Specify grade, product form and heat treatment; do not transfer annealed Grade 5 properties to other titanium grades. Colored anodizing, blasting, polishing and qualified passivation. Sliding contacts may need a suitable nitriding or oxidation treatment.
- Stainless steel
Consider 316/316L, 304L or other suitable grades for the environment and welding requirements. Free-machining 303 sacrifices some corrosion resistance and weldability. Use precipitation-hardening or martensitic grades when heat-treatment hardening is needed. Passivation, electropolishing, blasting, brushing, mirror polishing and qualified PVD coating; chemical coloring is process-dependent.
