Clear or Color Anodizing

MIL-A-8625 Type II, Class 1 and Class 2

Anodizing is a surface treatment used to protect or color an aluminum part (or alloy) by anodic oxidation. This technique consists of creating a 5 to 30 micrometer-thick electrically insulating layer on the surface of the aluminum (or alloy) part. This aluminum oxide layer is highly resistant to corrosion.
