Description:

Aluminium 7075 is zinc and magnesium alloyed aluminium with good strength and stress corrosion cracking resistance. With a density of only 2.81g/cm³, it is also one of the lightest alloys in commercial production. It is the primary alloying element. It has high strength (540 MPa), toughness, and excellent resistance to fatigue. The surface can either be mill finished or brush finished. It has very good machinability. It is extensively used in the structural parts for aircraft.

    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)
    dragger

    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 (3D render)

    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 (3D render)

    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 Black (3D Render)

    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
