Black oxidation
Black oxidation aims to oxidize stainless steel items where, due to very narrow tolerances, there would normally be no room for surface treatment.
- The layer thickness is approx. 0.5µ
- Can be used as a substrate for paint, but then production must be stopped before waxing or oil treatment
- Black oxidation is also used for items that must not transmit light reflection (AMS STD 595)
Black oxidation is done according to MIL DTL 13924.
Quality test:
- Salt spray test (ASTM B 117)
- Color Comparison (AMS STD 595)
- Gloss measurement
We will send the COC and test reports on request.
Our black oxidation process is 3rd party approved according to KVS-50, corresponding to MIL-DTL-13924, by KIWA TI Norway.
