Surface treatments for fasteners include various processes to improve their corrosion resistance, wear resistance, lubrication, and aesthetic appearance. Here are some common surface treatment techniques for fasteners:
-
Galvanizing: Immersing the fasteners in a hot-dip zinc bath to form a protective zinc layer, enhancing corrosion resistance. Common methods include electroplating and hot-dip galvanizing.
-
Nickel plating: Electroplating the fastener surface with nickel to improve corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
-
Phosphating: Treating the fastener surface with phosphating solutions to form a phosphate film, increasing friction coefficient and lubrication.
-
Passivation: Applying a passivation treatment to form an oxide film on the fastener surface, enhancing corrosion resistance.
-
Carburizing: Heating the fasteners to high temperatures in a carbon-rich environment, increasing surface carbon content to improve hardness and wear resistance.
-
Coating: Applying coatings or paints to the fastener surface, improving appearance, corrosion resistance, and reducing friction.
-
Nitriding: Exposing fasteners to nitrogen-rich atmospheres, forming a nitride layer through nitridation reaction, enhancing hardness and wear resistance.
These processes can be selected and combined based on the specific requirements and types of fasteners.
