Durable, Decorative Finishes with Type II Anodizing for Aluminum. Create a corrosion-resistant oxide layer ideal for dyeing, sealing, and aesthetic applications.
Standard anodizing—also known as Type II anodizing—is an electrolytic passivation process that creates a protective aluminum oxide layer for corrosion resistance, surface hardness, and aesthetic appeal. This oxide layer becomes part of the substrate, forming a porous but stable surface that can be dyed, sealed, or left natural depending on application needs. Type II is commonly used in industries where appearance, durability, and weather resistance are key.
Anodizing is an electrolytic passivation process used to create a natural oxide layer for decorative, durable, corrosion resistant finishes for nonferrous metals.
Aluminum oxide is applied by an electrochemical process that fully integrates with the aluminum substrate. This porous but highly stable finish is suitable for dyeing and sealing.
