Metal Finishing
NP3 / Electroless Nickel PTFE
NP3 / Electroless Nickel PTFE is a surface treatment for various metals and alloys which is an accurately applied, dry lubricated, low friction surface and is extremely hard and resistant to wear.
Black Oxide Coatings
Black oxide coatings provide a thin corrosion resistant oxide for ferrous materials. The black coating is both decorative and functional.
Phosphate Coating
CTI’s phosphate coating process produces a conversion coating or oxide that provides corrosion protection, as well as, a bondable surface for painting operations.
