Sulphuric Anodising is an electrochemical process that converts the surface of aluminium into a durable, corrosion-resistant oxide layer. It enhances appearance, hardness, and protection while allowing coloured dyes or sealants to be added for improved performance or aesthetics.
Creates a tough oxide film that resists wear, weathering, and chemicals.
Can be left natural or dyed in a wide range of colours.
Increases surface hardness and scratch resistance.
Typically, 5–25 µm; adjustable to meet different specification needs.
The anodic film is non-conductive.
Widely used in aerospace, automotive, architectural, and precision engineering industries.
Anodising Type II thin film is a common replacement for Chromic Anodise
