Aluminum Surface Treatment – sustainable, precise, and quickly delivered

We help you with aluminum surface treatment to strengthen, protect, and refine aluminum components. With high precision, short lead times, and uncompromising quality, we deliver results you can trust.

What is aluminum surface treatment?

Aluminum surface treatment involves improving the properties of a component by treating its surface. It is used to increase wear resistance, protect against corrosion, enhance appearance, and in some cases, provide electrical insulation.

At Mastec CCTech in Ulricehamn, we specialize in aluminum surface treatment for small to medium-sized series. With modern and automated production, we can deliver both quickly and with high precision.

Benefits of Surface Treatment

Increased wear resistance
Protection against corrosion
Improved appearance
Electrically insulating properties

Our Surface Treatment Solutions

Anodizing

Increases wear resistance, corrosion protection, and provides a durable, decorative surface.

Hard Anodizing

Provides an extra durable surface for components exposed to high stress and wear.

Chromital

Advanced corrosion protection for aluminum according to high demands and standards.

Anodizing of Aluminum

Anodizing is a surface treatment method that significantly increases aluminum’s resistance. Through a controlled process, the aluminum surface is converted into a durable oxide layer. The result is a surface that is more resilient than untreated aluminum and also provides effective protection against wear, dirt, and corrosion.

Benefits of anodizing:

High wear resistance
Corrosion protection
Dirt-repellent surface
Electrically insulating
Decorative finish

Size and color options

We can anodize parts up to 2100 × 550 × 950 mm and offer the following color options: natural, black, green, red, and blue.

Hard Anodizing for Demanding Environments

When the application places extra high demands on wear resistance, hard anodizing is the obvious choice. This method creates a harder and more durable surface layer compared to regular anodizing. This makes it particularly suitable for components used in environments where load, wear, and lifespan are crucial.

Especially suitable for:

Aerospace industry
Hydraulics
Medical technology

Benefits:

Very high wear resistance
Extra durable surface
Long lifespan

Color options

Natural, black, green, red, and blue.

Chromital for Advanced Corrosion Protection

Mastec CCTech offers surface treatment according to Chromital Surtech 650 TCP and is one of the few approved suppliers in this field. The method provides very high corrosion protection and meets the military standard MIL 5541.

Benefits:

Meets MIL 5541
Very high corrosion protection
Withstands 168 hours in salt spray test according to ASTM B-117

Fast delivery capability

We are known for our fast delivery capability. The standard lead time is only 5 days, and historically, in some cases, we have been able to meet customer needs in as little as 3 hours. Our success factors are continuous controls, thoroughly documented processes, and an uncompromising focus on quality.

The surface treatments we offer include anodizing, passivation, and chromating of aluminum. We also perform tumbling and assembly and can deliver finished products directly to the end customer. Flexibility is one of our most important guiding principles – and something we live by in every assignment.

Quality, Environment, and Certifications

At CCTech, quality and environment are central parts of our operations. We frequently and systematically conduct bath analyses, follow supplier recommendations, and work according to our process manual.

We measure TOC (Total Organic Carbon) at a detailed level and maintain a process log along the entire line. All process statistics are followed up through daily management and regular meetings. CCTech is certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
