What is Annealing?
Also known as “normalizing,” annealing is a heat treatment process used to soften materials and achieve uniform microstructure through slow cooling. This method effectively removes residual stresses that can cause warping or bending during machining.
303 Stainless Steel (annealed)
- Features
- Heat Treatment Process: Reheating to the crystallization temperature followed by slow cooling eliminates internal stresses and achieves material softening, resulting in enhanced ductility.
- Stability in Tolerances: Compared to standard materials, this process minimizes distortion, ensuring stable tolerances after machining.
- Machinability: Among stainless steels, this material offers superior machinability, making it ideal for complex designs.
- Applications
- Automotive equipment, chemical processing equipment, high-precision parts, household items, architectural elements

304 Stainless Steel (annealed)
- Features
- Heat Treatment Process: Reheating to the crystallization temperature followed by slow cooling eliminates internal stresses and achieves material softening, resulting in enhanced ductility.
- Stability in Tolerances: Compared to standard materials, this process minimizes distortion, ensuring stable tolerances after machining.
- Excellent Weldability: The annealed 304 stainless steel offers superior weldability, making it suitable for various applications.
- Applications
- Automotive equipment, chemical processing equipment, high-precision parts, household items, architectural elements

Hard Anodize
- Features
- Durable Coating: Aluminum treated with hard anodizing achieves a robust film that provides excellent wear resistance.
*The appearance may vary depending on the material and coating thickness.
- Durable Coating: Aluminum treated with hard anodizing achieves a robust film that provides excellent wear resistance.
- Applications
- Automotive equipment, railway systems, aerospace components, medical devices
Phosphate Coating
- Features
- Corrosion and Wear Resistance: Phosphate coating offers excellent protection against rust and wear.
- High Adhesion: Its strong adhesion makes it ideal for use as a pre-treatment before painting.
* The treatment uses either zinc phosphate or manganese phosphate, resulting in variations in color and appearance. Please note that the selection of the treatment solution is not available.
- Applications
- Automotive equipment, industrial machinery, robotics, parts prior to painting
Low Temperature Black Chrome Plating
