Why Mid-Nite Black oxide your parts?
Because
no other process produces more benefits
at less cost!
Mid-Nite Black, magnetite (Fe3O4), is
the chemical
conversion of existing metal to form an integral, protective
surface where nothing is deposited, as contrasted to
applying a coating which bonds to metal, but does not
react chemically.
-
Abrasion, corrosion and rust protection -
Dimensional stability, hardness, temper and surface properties are not altered
-
Retains oils and waxes, improving lubricity, and reduces friction
-
Improves appearance of machined parts. Reduces light glare.
-
Extends shelf life of stored parts
-
Improves adhesion qualities for painting and eliminates dripping, peeling, cracking, chipping or rub-off
-
Suitable for electrical parts as there is minimal reduction in conductivity
-
Cost competitive - even with all of its protection, appearance and performance qualities - its less costly than painting, phosphating or plating.
