anodising service

looking for an anodising company in the northern part of the country

[ken king, King DesignParticipant @kenkingkingdesign]

Has anyone out there had a good experience when using an anodising service in northern England or southern Scotland ? I have a project requiring black anodising of machined aluminium parts for good wear resistance (general handling wear, that is) and cosmetic appeal. Shade variation is not a problem, in fact I expect it as differing alloys are used. Any recommendations gratefully received, thank you,

Ken.

Try these, we use them for our machinery parts.

Ken,

I don't know about 'ordinary' black anodising but I do know that the process of hard anodising causes aluminium alloy parts to 'grow' a few thou. If your parts are close-fitting, I suggest that you take advice in case you need to allow for this.

Best regards,

Swarf, Mostly!

I do a lot of anodising.

Lots of pictures on the images page.

I tend to do all the anodising on a certain day so it can take up to 2 weeks.

Small orders are fine, most places are only interested if you are spending £50+
