Black Oxide Steel Sheet

Mid temperature blackening processes offer dimensional stability smut free finishes and high quality results.

Black oxide steel sheet.

It is used to add mild corrosion resistance for appearance and to minimize light reflection. One of its advantages over other coatings is. Black oxide or blackening is a conversion coating for ferrous materials stainless steel copper and copper based alloys zinc powdered metals and silver solder. A non dimensional presto black oxide for steel is a low cost way to achieve good corrosion protection and enhance sales appeal.

The black stainless steel is available in 304 and 316 stainless steel and offers an attractive finish for general 304 and harsh environments 316. To achieve maximal corrosion resistance the black oxide must be impregnated with oil or wax. Epi s mid temperature black oxide process kool blak 225 blackens steel in 30 45 minutes and converts it to black iron oxide magnetite which provides a glossy black finish as well as protection for the part. With a uniform 0 000030 inch 1 micron thickness the porous crystalline structure of the black finish makes it an excellent absorbent base for a rust preventive top coat.

The pvd physical vapor deposition surface treatment is quote durable and is actually harder than the stainless steel surface itself. This sounds great but don t misunderstand.
