Sulfuric Anodizing is a process that provides a conversion on aluminum which changes the surface of the material to a naturally occurring aluminum oxide. The oxide build up changes the surface of the aluminum, which then provides greater abrasion resistance as well as increased corrosion protection. The finish from sulfuric anodizing will not only build up the aluminum oxide on the surface 0.0002″ – 0.0003″ thick, but will also penetrate into the material the same amount.
