Finish OverviewWhat are metallic coatings?
Metallic coatings are surface finishing processes where a layer of metal is deposited onto a part surface through controlled electrochemical or chemical processes. Depending on the coating type used, the process can improve corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity, wear resistance, lubricity, or cosmetic appearance.
Metallic coatings are widely used on CNC machined parts, industrial components, fasteners, automotive parts, electrical connectors, electronic products, and mechanical components where surface protection or specific functional properties are required.
Common coatings include zinc plating, nickel plating, chrome plating, tin plating, silver plating, copper plating, and other specialized treatments used in industrial, electronic, and decorative applications.
