Description:
This is a short chipped aluminium alloy containing between 3.3 – 4.6% copper. It is very suitable for high machining speeds and ideal for threading. In addition to copper, it also contains magnesium and lead. This material is commonly used for the production of machine parts, bolts, and nuts. However, its copper content gives it low weldability and low resistance to corrosion.

Anodizing (Type II)
Type II anodize provides increased corrosion resistance and can be used as a base for paint and other finishes.
Notes:- Involves using dyes to affect the part’s surface color
- Type II coatings are susceptible to wear and may bleach or fade under prolonged direct sunlight
- Possibility of requesting custom colors (RAL)
Available colors:
- Any custom RAL color

CNC machined part without surface finishes (3D render, aluminium)Bead blasting (3D render)
Bead blasting
Bead blasting involves spraying a pressurised stream of tiny beads of media, plastic or glass beads, from a nozzle onto the surface of the part. This removes the burrs and imperfections, leaving a smooth finish.
Notes:The recommended part size is 6-600 mm in both height and width. Smaller parts are hard to hold and tough to produce an even surface.
Final result:
- Uniform, matte or satin-like appearance
- Slightly grainy in the touch
-
Electroless nickel plating
Electroless nickel plating provides a uniform nickel coating, which offers protection from corrosion, oxidation, and wear on irregular surfaces.
Final result:
- Protection from corrosion, oxidation and wear on irregular surfaces
- Brighter appearance
-
Gold plating
Gold plating provides good corrosion and tarnish resistance. Gold has low contact resistance, excellent conductivity, and solderability.
Final result:
- Gold-like appearance
- Increased corrosion and tarnish resistance
-
Powder coating
Provides a continuous, protective color finish on parts using evenly applied, heat-cured paint. The finish is usually tougher and even compared to conventional painting.
Notes:Metals like aluminium and steel can be efficiently coated with polymer powders.
Available colors:
- Any custom RAL color
