Black oxidation is a passivation coating process for ferrous materials that provides a decorative black finish and a relative increase in corrosion resistance to treated parts. It is quite usual to impregnate a layer of oil in order to improve corrosion resistance.
The great advantages of black oxidation are thye small layer thickness and the low cost.
Application examples:
- Cutting tools, springs, valve bodies, toolholders, fasteners,molds, components and hydraulic machine blocks, chains, sprockets, gears, screws, hand and machine tools, automotive components in general, tubes and fittings, etc.
