Anodizing Service

Anodizing is a corrosion and scratch resistant treatment for aluminum that can be customized with different colors, patterns, images, etc.

Unlike coatings like paint, Powdercoat, and Cerakote, anodizing is bonded to the aluminum through a specific chemical reaction so it will never peel, flake, or rub off.

Our sister brand, ARC Anodizing has been in business for over 10 years and has built a reputation on quality and customer service. We have anodized components in almost every industry imaginable. 

ARC Anodizing specializes in custom graphic, type II anodizing. We offer over 100 colors and a variety of styles to choose from. With anodizing there is not a set pattern or color list to choose from. Each job is done one off and by hand to the specifications and requests of the customer. Each color bath that we offer can be blended with other colors to create nearly infinite color options.

What can be anodized?

Anodizing can be done to anything aluminum or titanium. However, the processes for each material is very different. The colors and effects possible are also different.

At Arc Anodizing we specialize in aluminum graphic anodizing.

6061 aircraft grade aluminum is your typical gold standard aluminum alloy blend. Aluminum also comes in other 6000 series alloys as well as 7000 series and 200 series, all of which can be anodized.

Cast aluminum can also be anodized however the grain structure of the aluminum can be very unpredicatable after the forging process and these defects can appear in the final product even with the best surface preperation. Therefore, we highly recommend that anything you anodize be of high grade billet machines aluminum.

What is the lasering service?

With our brand Arc Anodizing, we try to add more and more value to our customers.

We have aquired several CO2 lasering machines to use in conjunction with our anodzing line to offer more customization options. Our lasers have large work areas to accomidate big parts as well as rotary mounts for round objects.

In the past if you wanted a simple white logo or markings added to you product you would need to have it completly reanodized and the markings put into anodizing. Now we can either take you currently anodized products and add the appropiate marking, saving you money. Or add lasering along with out custom anodizing service.
